Our eco-future program in partnership with Earth day Canada
Hub1916 is honored to partner with Earth Day Canada to help your school achieve ambitious environmental goals by exploring eco-responsible avenues of improvement that go beyond ecological school uniforms. Together, we are proud to present to you our Eco-Future Program, an environmental program specially designed for our province’s schools aiming to raise awareness and guide the development of eco-responsible practices.
When you choose to work with Hub1916 for the creation of your school uniforms, you automatically benefit from our Eco-Future environmental program. The program has two components: guidance and awareness.

About our partner: Earth day Canada
Earth Day Canada is a charitable organization whose mission is to support people and organizations in reducing their impact on the environment by taking concrete steps on Earth Day and every day. Since August 2019, the charitable organization Tous les Jours, which was initially active in Quebec and in Canada’s French-speaking communities, has become Earth Day Canada in order to deploy its environmental support programs throughout Canada.
By relying on their multisectoral expertise, the organization goes beyond awareness-raising to convert ideas into solutions by designing environmental programs and projects with a proven positive impact in various areas such as waste management, the fight against food waste, sustainable mobility, tree planting, training and environmental awareness.
