Stratford Summer Music 21
I was thrilled to sponsor a young emerging artist, right here from our own backyard – local cellist Vanny Hu, a Grade 12 student from Stratford District Secondary School!
SSM Young Artist showcase puts stars-in-the-making with established professionals, side by side in intimate performance settings. This summer, we celebrate the accomplishments of local cellist Vanny Hu!
HPHA Healthcare Heroes Stand By Me for RBC
Now more than ever RBC Dominion Securities, RBC Foundation and RBC Royal Bank’s support has a great impact. The recent generous donation of $50,000 to the HPHA Healthcare Heroes COVID-19 fund ensures our hospitals’ clinical teams have the tools and resources they need in their fight against COVID-19.
The funds will be used for both short-term essentials like PPE and staff resources; and long-term strategic impact like microbiology molecular testing equipment where SGH acts as the laboratory hub for a dozen hospitals in Southwest Ontario.

Stratford General Hospital
We’ve played a critical role in insuring the Stratford General Hospital has the equipment it needs when it needs it most! The 2018 Charity Golf Classic raised a whopping $20,000 and will go towards our new CT Scanner. Only $100,000 is left to raise towards this tremendous piece of equipment. This new scanner allows hospital staff to conduct more detailed, accurate exams at a much greater pace with 40-70% less radiation. Each year the hospital performs some 12,000 CT scans.
