WATERLOO, ON, May 10, 2017 /CNW/ - Manulife has made a $25,000 donation to the Canadian Red Cross' Spring Floods Appeal, which is being used to provide assistance and aid for those impacted by flooding across Canada. The company will also match employee donations up to $10,000.
Parts of Canada have been inundated with record-breaking rainfalls and mass flooding this spring. From B.C. to parts of Ontario, Quebec and Atlantic Canada, residents of many Canadian communities find themselves in distressing circumstances with significant damage to their homes, properties and livelihoods.
"These floods have had a devastating impact on many communities across the country," said Marianne Harrison, President & CEO, Manulife Canada. "We are glad to help our fellow Canadians during this difficult time."
