OTTAWA – The Association of Canadian Financial Officers presented a cheque for $10,000 to the University of Ottawa Heart Institute at the Heart Institute Telethon on February 16, 2008.
The donation was raised through ACFO’s 12th Annual Rick McCallum Memorial Golf Classic held in May 2007 and Vice-President John Leduc was pleased to make the presentation on behalf of our 3,600 members.
