Scotiabank Sponsors Children in Need Golf Tournament 2016

Nassau, The Bahamas, November 30, 2016 – Continuing its support of the community, Scotiabank is proud to partner with Errol Brown’s Children in Need Charity again this year. The Bank is a platinum sponsor of the 14th Annual Golf Tournament in aid of various charities.

“At Scotiabank, community involvement is a central part of the way we live, work and do business every day. We are committed to helping young persons become better off and look forward to partnering with tournament organizers each year to assist children in need during the holidays,” said Leah Davis, Senior Manager, Marketing & Public Relations, Scotiabank.

Scotiabank affiliates are preparing to play in the tournament which is scheduled for Saturday, December 10, at 8:00 a.m. at the Ocean Club Golf Course, Paradise Island. This will be the second tournament since the passing of founder and patron, Errol Brown, who died earlier last year.
