Meridian sponsors Alzheimer Society of Ontario
By Adnews Staff
Credit union Meridian has signed on as the presenting sponsor of the Alzheimer Society of Ontario's second annual "Seeds of Hope" fundraising campaign. During the campaign, the organization distributes free forget-me-not flower seeds to Ontario residents who request them at <http://www.alzheimerontario.ca/seedsofhope>. The campaign encourages people to plant the seeds on May 16 to commemorate those who have experienced dementia. As part of its sponsorship, Meridian will distribute sign-up forms to customers in its branches.
"Meridian is proud to partner with the Alzheimer Society of Ontario to sponsor its 2015 'Seeds of Hope' campaign," said Wade Stayzer, vice-president of retail and investment services at Meridian. "This campaign serves as a tribute to the families who struggle with this disease everyday while helping to generate awareness of Alzheimer's and other dementias in Ontario."
