Calendar Sales Will Benefit The Children’s Health Foundation Of Vancouver Island
VANCOUVER ISLAND – Starting October 18th, drop into any of Coastal Community Credit Union’s location to pick up their annual calendar. It features beautiful Island locations and the talents of local photographers—and 100 per cent of the proceeds go to the Children’s Health Foundation of Vancouver Island.
The campaign’s launch date marks the beginning of Co-op Week. According to Allyson Prescesky, Senior Manager, Community Experience and Communications for Coastal Community, extending a helping hand to community organizations is part of the co-operative spirit. “Concern for the community is a core value for all cooperatives and one that is important to us,” said Prescesky. “International Credit Union Day falls within Co-op Week, and what better way to celebrate it than by working together to care for the health of our young people and their families.”
The Children’s Health Foundation has supported the health of Island kids for more than 95 years, focusing on early childhood development, youth mental health, and children and youth living with complex needs.
“We are so grateful for local organizations such as Coastal Community Credit Union for continuing to demonstrate such generosity and for their dedication to supporting the health of our Island kids!” said Veronica Carroll, Children’s Health Foundation CEO.
