NASSAU, The Bahamas - Scotiabank is a platinum sponsor of the Heart Ball in aid of the Sir Victor Sassoon (Bahamas) Heart Foundation, again this year.

“At Scotiabank, we want to help young persons in the community to become better off,” said Leah R. Davis, Senior Manager of Marketing and Public Relations at Scotiabank. “We are partnering with the Sir Victor Sassoon (Bahamas) Heart Foundation as 97% of the funds raised at the Ball are used to assist children with congenital heart abnormalities.”

The 52nd Annual Heart Ball is scheduled for this Saturday, February 13 in the Independence Ballroom at the Melia Nassau Beach Resort, Cable Beach.

February is nationally observed as Heart Month. On February 19, the Bank’s employees will participate in Go Red Day by wearing red to bring awareness to cardiovascular disease and its risks. A donation will be made to The Bahamas Heart Association at that time.
