TransCanada supports diabetes education
TransCanada Corporation (TransCanada) has pledged $124,000 over two years to support and expand the Canadian Diabetes Association’s education programs in Alberta and Ontario.
This generous contribution will help the Association educate the public with up to date information on diabetes prevention and management. Accurate information helps individuals make informed choices about their health that can reduce the risk of developing devastating and potentially deadly complications such as heart attack, stroke, blindness, kidney disease or lower limb amputations.
“We value the Association’s education programs and the importance of supporting awareness, resources and tools to rural communities,” says Sian Weaver, senior community investment advisor, TransCanada. “Through our commitment to the Canadian Diabetes Association, we feel that we’re doing more than investing in communities - we’re investing in people.”
At TransCanada, Community Investment goes beyond investing dollars into the communities where they live, work and do business. TransCanada believes in supporting local associations and organizations which serve as community assets in empowering individuals, building strong communities and creating effective citizens.
With more than 60 years of experience, TransCanada is a leader in the responsible development and reliable operation of North American energy infrastructure including natural gas and oil pipelines, power generation and gas storage facilities.
