”TD Has a Desire to See Communities Thrive”
TD Bank Group has always strived to make a lasting difference in the communities in which its employees and customers live and work. TD has a desire to see communities thrive, supporting over 5,000 community organizations to make an enduring impact. For the residents of Centre Wellington, the bank continues to be a leader in their commitment to Groves and to our community. Recently, TD announced a groundbreaking gift of $150,000 to the New Groves Hospital Campaign; the largest single gift by a financial institution in the history of Groves Hospital Foundation. As a community, we looked to TD to play a significant role in the New Groves Hospital Campaign. TD did just that; their financial investment to help build a New Groves Hospital goes far beyond philanthropy. They are creating a positive social impact, not only for the residents of Centre Wellington, but also for the medical staff working at Groves. By naming the two Education Services Rooms and the Medical Education & Medical Staff Facility, TD has ensured the continuation of medical excellence at Groves. The Medical Education and Staff Facilities will be designed to ensure acoustic privacy, allowing for a collaborative and multi-disciplinary approach to rural healthcare education.
“TD is proud to support the New Groves Hospital Campaign as it will significantly enhance local health care delivery,” said John Pollice, District Vice President, TD Canada Trust.
TD works to enrich our community by contributing to our social development. TD has provided the means to ensure there is also a public space available for the community to come together for meaningful discussions and educational sessions. By naming the two Education Services Rooms in the New Groves Hospital, TD has provided a platform for community enrichment through such seminars as “Doc Talks”, training sessions (such as concussion awareness), and stress management (e.g. yoga and meditation); all of which will benefit and be provided free of cost to our residents. TD’s generous gift demonstrates not only leadership, but a commitment to enhancing the education, health and wellness of our community. “The wellbeing of our communities is an important focus for us and this gift will help provide dedicated spaces to engage both residents and medical staff in on-going learning opportunities,” said Pollice. The groves foundation would like to express their gratitude to TD bank group
