This week, Allyson Bornau from our Hymers Private Wealth team and Pamela Wiebe, our Premier Banking Advisor, volunteered at McDonald's in support of McHappy Day. They worked a busy shift helping to raise funds for a cause worth supporting.

McHappy Day happens every first Wednesday in May—it's been a Canadian tradition since 1977. McDonald's restaurants across the country participate, with over 1,400 locations involved this year. The funds raised go to Ronald McDonald House Charities and local charities in communities where McDonald's operates.

Ronald McDonald Houses provide a place for families to stay while their children receive medical care. More than 25,000 Canadian families each year use these facilities. When a child is sick and in the hospital, being able to stay nearby makes a real difference.
We're super grateful to Allyson and Pamela for stepping up and giving their time!
