Founded in 2005 with a $1.5M gift from Scotiabank, the Scotiabank Stay in School Program is based in evidence showing that regular access to tutoring and awards celebrating a child’s accomplishments can help them improve their grades, stay in school, and build self-esteem to ensure their academic success over the long term. Over 23,000 elementary and high school students have received support since the inception of the program, which includes tutoring and financial incentives for academic success and graduation awards.
“Young people are our future leaders, and Scotiabank is committed to nurturing their growth. Young people from care need extra tools and resources to succeed, and we are proud to be helping them reach their infinite potential through the Scotiabank Stay in School Program.” – Jacquie Ryan, Vice President, Sponsorship Marketing and Global Philanthropy, Scotiabank.
Loblaw Give a Little, Help a Lot

Utilizing cause marketing, organizations can align with a cause they believe in by engaging customers and employees. This leads to building customer loyalty, increasing employee motivation and retention, and differentiating your company from the competition. Loblaws stores across Ontario have participated in cause marketing by raising funds for Children’s Aid Foundation of Canada through their Give a Little Help a Lot in-store campaign. Cashiers asked customers to donate $2 to the campaign, with the proceeds going towards teaching at-risk youth about healthy cooking and eating.
