$5,150 in donations was raised through the Strathroy Shoppers Drug Mart Tree of Life Campaign. Customers generously made donations to show their support for healthcare and additional funds were raised through in-store fundraisers run by employees. Proceeds were donated to Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation.

The campaign, which ran over four weeks, offered customers the opportunity to purchase and personalize their own paper “leaf” for a loonie, “maple leaf” or an “apple”.  Each “leaf” sold represented a donation to the Strathroy Middlesex General Hospital Foundation and become part of the store's Tree of Life display, which filled the wall at Strathroy Shoppers Drug Mart.
