NASSAU, Bahamas – Scotiabank is a proud
platinum sponsor of The Bahamas AIDS Foundation’s Red Ribbon Ball slated
for this coming weekend under the theme, “Winter in Paradise”.
Now
in its 21st year, the Ball is the Foundation’s largest fundraising
initiative. Scotiabank is an annual supporter of the AIDS Foundation in
keeping with the Bank’s global commitment to the fight against HIV and
AIDS.
According to Scotiabank’s Senior Manager of
Marketing and Public Relations, Leah Davis, “Scotiabank is committed to
being relevant and responsive to the needs our local community at the
grassroots level. Raising awareness of HIV and AIDS through prevention
and education efforts is particularly of interest to us and aligns with
the Bank’s global strategy on HIV/AIDS.”
In June of this
year, Scotiabank, in partnership with the Ministry of Health National
HIV/AIDS Programme, hosted the 4th Annual HIV Testing Day with over 1000
persons tested in Pompey Square during the one-day event.
The 21st Annual Red Ribbon Ball takes place this Saturday, November 22 at Atlantis’ Grand Ballroom.
