Genoa Design Celebrates Role in the Launch of the First Large Vessel Under the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS)
(December 12, 2017, Mount Pearl, NL): Genoa Design International (“Genoa”) joins Seaspan Shipyardsthe Government of Canada, and the Canadian Coast Guard to celebrate the launch of the first large non-combat ship to be designed and built under the National Shipbuilding Strategy (NSS). The launch event took place at Seaspan Shipyards in Vancouver on Friday, December 8.
Back in November 2017, when Genoa exhibited at the International Workboat Show in New Orleans, Genoa began an “Adopt a Genoa Bear” initiative to support the Children’s Hospital of New Orleans. For anyone who visited our booth and adopted a Genoa bear, Genoa would make a donation and double the donation if they sent us a picture of their Genoa bear. On February 23, we were pleased to present a cheque for $2000 to the Children’s Hospital of New Orleans. Thanks to all our friends and colleagues who visited us at WorkBoat Show and helped us raise funds for the local children’s hospital.
Genoa Design received the 2017 Spirit of Philanthropy award from the Association of Fundraising Professionals for its partnership with Home Again Furniture Bank. A special thanks Genoa’s staff for all your enthusiasm, support and work with Home Again on Furniture Fridays!
