Bruce Power and its supplier partners continue to support those impacted by childhood cancer by combining to donate $100,000 to the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario (POGO).

Bruce Power and supplier donations enable POGO to continue to build the best childhood cancer research and care systems for impacted youth and their families. POGO programs include financial assistance for families in need, transitions counselling and much needed continued research in the field.

“Through the generous commitment of Bruce Power and its Supplier Partners, we are making a meaningful difference in the childhood cancer community,” said Shannon Caskey, POGO’s Chief Development Officer. “Their investment enables us to extend our reach, innovate, and drive programs and services that benefit patients, survivors, families, and health care professionals throughout Ontario.”

Pat Dalzell, Bruce Power’s Vice-President of Corporate Affairs and Market Development, said the company and its partners are happy to be able to help.

“We are committed to supporting POGO with its impressive cancer care efforts. With cancer rates rising worldwide and its devastating impact on children and their families, we are proud to support an organization that provides impacted Ontario families with the care and comfort they need,” Dalzell said.

Bruce Power and its employees are also proud of their role as a global supplier of medical isotopes, which are used in various forms of cancer treatment and the sterilization of medical equipment.
