It’s meaningful and beneficial for eSAX (The Entrepreneur Social Advantage Experience) to help raise funds for the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa, because both organizations share a deep commitment to building and supporting community.

eSAX is a local Ottawa initiative designed to foster networking and support for entrepreneurs, startups, and small business owners. It brings people together in a welcoming environment where they can connect with mentors, investors, service providers, and peers. At its core, eSAX is about creating opportunities, encouraging collaboration, and building a stronger entrepreneurial ecosystem in the city.

The Kiwanis Club of Ottawa is a service organization that has been active in the community for over 100 years. Kiwanis focuses on improving the lives of children and youth through initiatives such as scholarships, school breakfast programs, leadership training, and community outreach. The club’s efforts are grounded in volunteerism and long-term commitment to social development.

By working together, eSAX and Kiwanis demonstrate how different parts of the community—business and service—can support each other. When a business-oriented organization like eSAX helps raise funds for a service club like Kiwanis, it creates a bridge between economic development and social responsibility. Fundraising efforts bring in business leaders, community members, and influencers. It’s a chance for eSAX to expand its network and develop long-term partnerships that go beyond the event. The partnership introduces entrepreneurs and professionals to the longstanding impact of Kiwanis, while giving Kiwanis exposure to a newer generation of engaged, civic-minded individuals. 

Moreover, it sends a positive message: that success in business and a commitment to giving back are not mutually exclusive. Kiwanis focuses on making the world a better place for youth — causes that resonate with many entrepreneurs and small businesses who attend eSAX. Supporting Kiwanis indirectly supports the next generation of local leaders and entrepreneurs.

eSAX is pleased to contribute and raise funds in support of the Kiwanis Club of Ottawa that directly benefit Ottawa’s youth, making the community stronger for everyone.

In short, it’s a natural and mutually beneficial relationship—one that reflects a shared belief in connection, leadership, and local impact.
