What Defines Us

Social responsibility

The common denominator is our passion for sharing our knowledge and willingness to give time, allowing us to shape and change our industry and the people who are a part of it.

Should we have the time or take the time to give?

To ask the question is to answer it! Even if time is a scarce commodity, it’s all a question of priorities.

Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada since 2008

National

In 2002, an event plunges Magil CEO, John Marcovecchio, into a caregiving role and changes his vision of work/volunteer balance. At age 11, Alyssa, his friend’s daughter, is diagnosed with rare leukemia.

She will recover and make him discover the pleasure of giving back. Over $ 75K raised by Magil in 2019 alone.

Magil team members join in as part of the Alyssa’s Crew group, which collectively raised more than $1 million in 10 years.

Mentoring

Various organizations

Coast to Coast

For us as well as for our industry, our role is to build, gather, unite a set of components and stakeholders around a common goal. This is not only the key to success in business, but also to give a sense of purpose to what we do.

If we want to leave more than a series of achievements but make a lasting contribution, then taking the time to give back is not an incidental activity, but a duty.

Many of our team members are proud to participate in various mentoring initiatives such as Fanshawe College of Applied Arts and Technology, Concordia and Polytechnique Universities, Women in Construction and the Urban Development Institute to name a few.
