Assante Wealth Management has been a proud sponsor of the CanWest Raise-a-Reader program since 2004, and has gifted a quarter of a million dollars a year to the cause. We’re focused on creating wealth and prosperity for Canadian families so our clients and their children can enjoy all the advantages and opportunities of living in this great country. We recognize that the ability to read is fundamental to a child's confidence and a cornerstone to success in life. By being a sponsor of Raise-a-Reader, our advisors and employees continue to make a difference in the lives of children across Canada: In 2005, we helped raise more than $2 million for family literacy programs.
