Local Scotiabankers
organize a WALK FOR HAITI
Saturday
January 30th at 6.05am, 30 local Scotiabankers
with their Country Head Mr. Chester Hinkson,
Scotiabank Pensioners with family and friends
totaling 60 (sixty) including some of our colleagues
from RBC Royal Bank of Canada, RBTT,ECFH and
EC Global insurance walked to Pigeon Island
Fort accompanied by a Police outrider, the Red
Cross and our two Scotiabank organizers Nancy
Augustin and Wendy Delmar.
The organizers ensured that all the walkers
were well hydrated, providing us with water
and fruit juices at the start, during and after
the walk, busy driving up and down the route
making sure that persons were comfortable.

These were kindly
donated by Bryden and Partners, Peter &
Co., and the Taiwanese Agricultural Lab. The
group assembled at the Pigeon Island National
Park, with kind permission granted by the
St. Lucia National Trust. Fruit (donated by
Lucille Chitolie- Scotiabank Pensioner) was
served at the park, where most of the participants
were gathered. The walk culminated with prayers
and song lead by Father Cetoute. Scotiabank
wishes to thank all those persons who made
this walk possible, and the outpouring of
assistance that we received. We were able
to raise “$4,059.00” for the cause
and wish to also thank the companies that
were unable to make it, who sent in donations.
Scotiabank’s corporate office will be
matching our contributions, so we will be
submitting $8,118.00 to our brothers and sisters
of Haiti.
