BMO Bank of Montreal held a Grand Opening ceremony today to officially launch its new $3.3 million branch in Fletchers Meadow, Brampton.  The new branch, located at 20 Brisdale Road, employs 15 branch staff and represents a significant investment in the Brampton community. 

BMO customers and employees celebrated the event with the presentation of $17,500 to Peel Children’s Aid.  A portion of the funds will be used to establish the “BMO Financial Group Bursary,” which will provide scholarships to under-privileged youth over the next 10 years.  The remainder of the contribution will help support this year’s Peel Children’s Aid Fantasy Auction, which takes place in October.

“I am very proud of BMO Bank of Montreal’s strong tradition of supporting the communities in which it does business,” said Marilyn Rozsa, Vice-President of Peel Halton District, BMO Bank of Montreal.  “I am particularly pleased to partner with Peel Children’s Aid in helping them invest in creating a brighter future for children.”
