Scotiabank Fundraises for Dalhousie Medical Research Foundation (DMRF)

From L to R: Rhonda Graham (Branch Manager), Portland Street Branch, Dartmouth), Paul DeWolfe (VP Retail & Small Business Banking), Barbara Oland (DMRF Board Member) and and Barry Gaul (Branch Manager, Clayton Park, Halifax).

On September 26, 2012, several Scotiabank branches came together to hold a golf tournament at Glen Arbour Golf Course in Halifax to raise funds for a number of charities. DMRF's Molly Appeal and Beatrice Hunter Cancer Research Institute were two of the supported charities.

On November 7, 2012, Ms. Barbara Oland (Board member at DMRF) and golf tournament participant, received a cheque on behalf of DMRF in the amount of $14,000 from Scotiabank. THANK YOU to all the fabulous Scotiabank employees in the Halifax Regional Municipality who worked so hard to make this happen!
