Dear Heart and Stroke Foundation,

 

I am writing to express my deep concern over your current
sponsorship/marketing program with the company Cash Money.   It saddens
me as a donor to see that your organization is partnering with a payday
loan/cheque cashing company.  This sector is well known from research
and media reports to helps to deepen the effects of poverty on it's
clients.  As you well know socio-economic status is one of the greatest
determinants of health and heart health in particular.   I had to shake
my head when I saw this partnership.  Because of this partnership, I can
no longer in good conscious continue to support your organization via
various forms of donation as I have for over 20 years.  It saddens and
sickens me to see your organization selling its soul and selling out
people in order to raise a few measly dollars through such crass
partnerships.

 

With sadness,

 

Darryl Troff
