Partnership: Manitoba Hydro
Manitoba Hydro commits support to CNIB in excess of $10,000 annually.
Mr. R.B. (Bob) Brennan, President & CEO, Manitoba Hydro is a member
of the Manitoba-Saskatchewan Division board. He is also the honorary
chairman of the Winnipeg Visions Luncheon and has volunteered in other
capacities over the years.
Mr. Brennan became aware of the needs of people living with vision
loss when one of his senior employees was afflicted with an eye disease.
Naturally, the employee wanted to know if his job was intact, what type
of accommodations could be provided, was re-training required, how
could he maintain his mobility and other questions related to workplace
adaptations and daily living skills.
Since this time, Manitoba Hydro has continued to invest in the
programs and services of CNIB. A large financial commitment was made to
CNIB's "That All May Read...Campaign" for digital library services along
with ongoing commitments to other areas of the organization.
CNIB is very grateful to Mr. Brennan and Manitoba Hydro and we know
the financial support will continue to have a tremendous impact on
improving the lives of people living with vision loss in Manitoba.
