Heading into the long weekend, we’re reflecting on all of the fun activities Bousfielders took part in over the summer! This summer, Bousfielders were busy competing in our annual volleyball league, attending the Hamilton Art Crawl, and spending time with colleagues and family at our Summer Social BBQ. And of course, we couldn’t miss the opportunity to shout out this year’s OPPI/CIP conference once last time. We’re looking forward to the fall and everything it has in store!

This past Spring, Bousfielders participated in two important initiatives – the Mattamy Homes Bike for Brain Health and the IG Wealth Management Walk for Alzheimer’s! These events raise funds and awareness in support of dementia research and care. Dementia is the fastest growing healthcare issue of our time and has impacted many of us in some way.

We are happy to announce that the Walk for Alzheimer’s raised $2,451 for the Alzheimer Society and the Bike for Brain Health raised $10,290 for Baycrest Health Sciences. Together, Bousfields raised $12,741 for these important causes that are close to our hearts!

Thank you to everyone who organized, participated, fundraised and supported these events, we couldn’t have done it without you.
