March 02, 2020 // Franchising.com // IRVINE, Calif. - Budget Blinds® has announced the recipients of its 2020 Heart & Home Giving Back Award and Budget Blinds Cares Awards given to business owners making a difference in their local communities on behalf of their Budget Blinds franchise.

Collectively, the three Budget Blinds franchisee winners revealed today are befriending convalescent home residents in Northern California, raising money for hunger and tornado relief in South Dakota and providing assistance to hundreds of local families in Alberta, Canada, among other worthwhile causes.

Presented earlier this year by Budget Blinds President Doug Phillip at Bring It Home, the 2020 convention for Budget Blinds franchisees, the awards are given annually to Budget Blinds business owners who best embody the brand’s long-term commitment to caring and giving-back to local communities and individual lives through financial support, volunteerism and ongoing partnership.

The three Budget Blinds community service award winners for 2020 are:

• Dawn Cameron of Medicine Hat, Ontario, Alberta, Canada (Budget Blinds of Medicine Hat/The Foothills) – Budget Blinds Cares Award including a $10,000 donation to the Medicine Hat Women’s Shelter Society of Medicine Hat, administered by the Community Foundation of Southeastern Alberta.
