Vacu-Man Proudly Sponsors JA World of Choices – Empowering the Future Workforce
Vacu-Man is thrilled to once again be a proud sponsor of the Junior Achievement World of Choices – Career Exploration Day on April 10, 2025. This event is an incredible opportunity for over 400 Grade 7 and 8 students to explore future career possibilities, gain valuable insights from industry professionals, and understand how education plays a key role in shaping their futures.
As a family-run business operating for over 45 years, Vacu-Man has always been committed to supporting young people, especially when it comes to exploring careers in the skilled trades. The trades industry has faced significant challenges over the years, with a noticeable decline in new workers entering the field. However, the reality is that skilled trades are recession-proof careers—every home needs heating, air conditioning, and clean air. With growing concerns over allergies, pollution, and indoor air quality, the demand for HVAC professionals has never been greater.
By sponsoring events like World of Choices, Vacu-Man hopes to inspire the next generation to consider a career path in the trades—an industry that is not only essential but offers stability, growth, and an opportunity to make a real difference in people’s lives. Whether it’s maintaining furnaces, cleaning air ducts, or improving indoor air quality, the HVAC industry remains one of the most crucial yet often overlooked career paths.
This sponsorship also aligns with our deep-rooted commitment to giving back to the Hamilton community, a value that extends beyond Vacu-Man’s operations. Adam Oldfield, president of Vacu-Man and soon-to-be president of the Rotary Club of Hamilton for 2025-2026, is passionate about community service and youth development. The Rotary Club of Hamilton, with its long-standing history of service, has been a driving force in supporting local initiatives, from literacy programs to fundraising for families in need.
As Rotary president, Adam is dedicated to bringing the organization to the forefront, ensuring that even during uncertain economic times, families in Hamilton receive the support they need. The Rotary Club continues to champion community-driven projects, raising funds for essential programs that directly impact the lives of children, families, and future entrepreneurs.
Through Vacu-Man’s sponsorship of World of Choices, we are not only investing in the future workforce but also reinforcing our commitment to community growth and sustainability. We can’t wait to meet the next generation of tradespeople, professionals, and innovators who will help shape the future!
