Inspiring Stories: Real Impact
The Global Compliance Team at Scotiabank hosted an exciting “Minute to Win It” Games Day in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Toronto! Teams of 3-5 participants faced off in fast-paced games, bringing energy and fun to the workplace. Adding to the excitement, staff could make donations to give teams playful disadvantages—like wearing sleep masks—creating plenty of laughter and friendly competition.
Thanks to their creativity and generosity, the event raised over $8,000 to support mentorship programs for children and youth in our community!
