www.insideHALTON.com | OAKVILLE BEAVER | Friday, November 1, 2013 | 14 THINK AGAIN! On October 28, the March of Dimes locked out employees who provide vital support and services to vulnerable clients in Oakville. This "non-profit" charity has enjoyed a $900,000 surplus[1] since 2010, and assets in excess of $30 million.[2] It pays its CEO, Andrea Spindel, $270,000[3] annually. Even so, the agency says workers must take wage concessions. Clients of the March of Dimes are people with disabilities that need assistance in their day-to-day lives so they can live independently. They need their front-line care workers back at work. How can you help? Call 416-425-3463, toll-free: 1-800-263-3463, e-mail info@marchofdimes.ca and tell the March of Dimes to spend donor dollars on those in need. This is about helping vulnerable people - not accumulating assets. GIVING TO THE ONTARIO MARCH OF DIMES?
