Towards the end of last year, we had the pleasure of working with volunteers from Coast Capital Savings and learned more about their Help Heroes Volunteer Program.

Coast Capital’s employees are passionate about the communities in which they live, work, and serve. Through their volunteer program, employees are empowered to choose which causes they want to support with their volunteer time. The program provides employees with paid time to volunteer during work hours, supports employees who want to volunteer during their own time, and designates time for employees to volunteer together as a team.

A big thank you to Garry and Andrea who helped us prepare for distribution of various comfort items for patients and long-term care residents. Your efforts and your donation are most appreciated!
