Live More Awards Gala Raises over $250,000 The Northwood Foundation’s Live More Awards gala, presented by Shannex, took place on June 1, raising over $250,000 to help support programs and initiatives here at Northwood that aren’t funded by the government. In the past, the funds from this gala have been used to make the Kaye’s Place, the Bedford Campus Café, Cozy Corners and the Pauline Potter Fitness Centre possible. “We’re committed to ensuring that our residents and clients are living more,” says Janet Simm, President & CEO of Northwood. “Being a not-for-profit means the funds raised at the Live More Awards support initiatives that improve the quality of life for those living in our community.” Continued on page 6
