On Friday, March 14th, Access Credit Union presented a cheque for $8,000 to Eden Foundation.  It represents a renewal of a relationship that has been in existence for many years.  On hand to receive the cheque from Access Credit Union Central Reional Manager Chris Hildebrand were Eden Health Care Services Chief Executive Officer, James Friesen and Eden Foundation's Director, Earl Reimer.

 Ms. Hildebrand stated, "We feel that this is a very good donation because Eden Foundation encompasses so many different organizations. The residential services, Pathways, Segue Career Options, Recovery of Hope. So this way we are able to help many different groups with one donation, and we are proud to be a part of that." 

The money received will be used to support the efforts of other fund-raising events that are on the calendar of events for Eden Foundation.  Participants and visitors will see recognition of Access' support at all of the events.  Keep watch for the Spring Concert at the end of March, the IronMan Golf Tournament in June, the Winkler Tractor Trek in July and the Head for the Hills bike event in early September.

Each of those events are an occasion for the community to come participate in an area of interest, to hear the stories of people served by the various services of the Eden organization and to take part in supporting the work.
