 Join other area businesses for the Manulife Bike & Hike for Heart on Sunday, June 7 at RIM Park, near the Manulife Sportsplex. With all the doom and gloom in the economy, what better time than now to get together for some team-building fun, knowing you’re supporting an invaluable community resource, St. Mary’s Regional Cardiac Care Centre.
Last year, more than 1,000 individuals representing 30 local companies contributed more than $175,000 of the $220,000 raised to support the Cardiac Care Centre and we’re hoping that even more companies will get involved this year.
The sooner you register, the sooner you and your team can get started fundraising. We think you’ll find the secure online fundraising tool convenient and easy to use. For step-by-step instructions, select ‘Fundraising’ in the left hand menu.
