We’re proud to announce the final results of the 2024 Canadian Construction Challenge — and wow, what an incredible campaign it was!

This year, you contributed to a record-setting $967,652 raised, showing just how powerful this industry can be when it comes together for men’s health. There were 1479 participants from 241 teams that rallied for men’s health.

Now, to anoint a champion. With a remarkable $112,174 raised, Ledcor has pulled off the three-peat as our 2024 Canadian Construction Challenge champions. Craig Lesurf comes in as the top individual fundraiser with over $45K raised. Congrats Ledcor and Craig!

While Ledcor was our winner, we had our most competitive leaderboard ever this year. PCL was able to take home the silver and Gillam Group walked away with the bronze with Jermyn Lumber and Onni Group rounding out the top 5.

A huge round of applause to everyone involved this year, you should each take pride in the success of the challenge. Thank you for helping us build a future for men's health!
