Scotiabank presented a special gift to and sponsored the fun run walk in honor of the 65th anniversary of The Salvation Army's Erin H. Gilmour School for Blind and Visually Impaired Children.
Thanks to Scotiabank, the school now has a brand new Reizen Vision electronic magnification system that will amplify text, making reading easier and less strenuous for legally-blind students. Additionally, Scotiabank proudly sponsored the school's recent anniversary fun run walk.
Scotiabank's Senior Manager for Marketing and Public Relations Leah R. Davis congratulated the school on its 65th anniversary. She said, "Giving back to the community in meaningful ways is a part of who we are as Scotiabank. Through our Bright Future philanthropic program, we believe in creating opportunities that will help young people achieve their full potential and are delighted to know that Scotiabank's sponsorship and gift will help the Erin H. Gilmour School to forward the development of support services, research and new technologies available to blind and visually impaired students."
