#ThankfulThursday gives the Brant Community Healthcare System (BCHS) Foundation a regular opportunity to recognize and thank the important individuals, businesses and organizations in our community that help to make a difference to the quality and effectiveness of our local healthcare system.
This week’s Thankful Thursday features:
Pita Pit’s Brantford stores!
Thank you to Brantford’s regional store owner-manager, Chris Settimi, Pita Pit Canada and the staff at all three Pita Pit Brantford locations – 185 King George Road, 320 Colborne Street West and 218 Henry Street – for their help and tireless support of the Brant Community Healthcare System (BCHS) Foundation’s Healthy Hearts campaign.
Healthy Hearts is a joint partnership between all three Brantford Pita Pit stores and the BCHS Foundation forged to raise money for local healthcare at the Brantford General and The Willett, Paris.
From Feb. 1 through 21, customers could donate to the Healthy Hearts campaign by purchasing a paper heart to be displayed in-store. On Feb. 14 a dollar from every pita sale at all three Brantford Pita Pit stores was donated to the BCHS Foundation.
On Mar. 7 Chris Settimi and his team of hardworking staff presented BCHS Foundation Development Co-ordinator Amanda Kwist and Marilyn Sewell of the BCHS Foundation Board of Directors with a cheque for $2,430.57, representing pita sales and donations during the Healthy Hearts campaign, plus a bonus $1,000 contribution awarded to the BCHS Foundation from Pita Pit Canada. Well done and THANK YOU to Pita Pit’s customers for your commitment to healthcare. You are all making an important contribution to community healthcare at the BCHS!
