"We at Servus Credit Union are very pleased to be able to make a significant contribution to the Lending Cupboard. Their dedication to providing Central Albertans with easy access to items like wheelchairs, hospital beds and walkers for individuals experiencing illness or disability is a worthy and noble cause. The Lending Cupboard is making a huge difference in people’s lives and we are proud to support their efforts." Rob Stryker Vice President, Retail Banking Alberta South "The Lending Cupboard is delighted and honored to be chosen as the 2009 charity of choice. In the two and a half years we’ve been open, the Lending Cupboard has served close to 8,000 people in Central Alberta. Our inventory has grown to 3,600 pieces of equipment and still the demand continues. The support of our communities is integral in meeting these ongoing needs. Servus Credit Union has exemplified this support in their generous donation of $30,000 which will be used towards the installation of a new ventilation system, a barrier free door and additional medical equipment. On behalf of the staff and volunteers, our sincere thanks to Servus Credit Union." Jaqui Joys Executive Director |
