TORONTO, March 25, 2021 /CNW/ - For each goal scored by the Toronto Maple Leafs this season, Scotiabank will prize $1000 to help several lucky fans^* become closer to meeting their financial goals, through the Goals for Goals program, developed in collaboration with Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment (MLSE).

"Scotiabank is known for putting our customers first, and for being Canada's Hockey Bank," says Laura Curtis Ferrera, Chief Marketing Officer, Scotiabank. "The Goals for Goals program brings together our commitment in both of these areas, to help fans achieve their financial goals faster, while cheering on the home team."

Goals for Goals aligns to Scotiabank’s focus to help customers reach their financial goals by taking control of their financial future. Launched in September 2020, ScotiaAdvice+ offers customers a range of new options to seek financial advice.
