Hasty Market launches province wide campaign in support of Trillium Health Centre's cardiac programs

Mississauga, Ontario, September 12, 2002 – The Hasty Market is in the driver's seat of a fabulous new campaign in support of Trillium Health Centre's Cardiac Services.

From September 1st to October 19th, all Hasty Market and Min A Mart Stores in Ontario will be selling raffle tickets for $2.00 each. The prize? A brand new BMW that is currently on display at Trillium's Mississauga Site. Also in September, Hasty Market suppliers Coca-Cola, Humpty Dumpty, Neilson Dairy, Canada Bread, and Tropicana will donate a portion of all product sales to Trillium.

At the kick-off on September 4th, Trillium Health Centre's President and CEO Ken White and Trillium Health Centre Foundation's Chair Gerry Beasley thanked Hasty Market President Nameh Jabbour and Hasty Market CEO Joseph Farah for their support of the Health Centre's progressive and innovative cardiac programs and services that are in high demand in our community as well as throughout the province.

Trillium's Cardiac Services provide comprehensive, sophisticated cardiac care at both the hospital's Queensway Site in Etobicoke and its Mississauga Site. The Mississauga Site cares for patients' emergency cardiac needs and inpatient care including cardiac surgery. The Queensway Site offers a full range of outpatient cardiac diagnostic services and rehabilitation programs to patients recovering from heart attacks, open-heart surgery, and coronary angioplasty.

Trillium's Cardiac Services care for patients from the surrounding communities of Peel, Halton, and west Toronto, as well as across the province. It is the second surgical program of its kind to be located in a non-teaching community hospital and performs approximately 10% of all cardiac surgical procedures in the province. Trillium is also a leading hospital in "beating heart" surgery.
