CALGARY, April 27, 2013 /CNW/ - TD Canada Trust celebrates today, the official grand opening of its new state-of-the-art branch in the SW community of Glendale. Located at 3851-17th Avenue, SW Calgary, Alberta, the new branch is full-service and open seven days a week to serve individuals and businesses of the high-density residential community. The new branch also features service in Korean, Cantonese and Mandarin. In recognition of the event, TD Friends of the Environment Foundation made a $5,000 donation to the Melinda Hall Community Garden.

"We've opened several new branches in Calgary and area this year and we continue to add new locations with unique service offerings to increase customer choice and convenience, " said Monique Bateman, Senior Vice President, TD Canada Trust, Prairie Region. "Promoting diversity and protecting the environment are among our core values. We would like to thank the Melinda Hall Community Garden for their commitment to this project, which has a positive impact on the entire community."

Features of the new branch include:

  • An open concept design that helps TD serve customers better by moving financial specialists out from behind desks and in front of customers.
  • Digital displays mounted throughout the branch to provide customers with current information about TD products and services.
  • A customer lounge with coffee station lets customers wait in comfort if they arrive early for an appointment or are waiting for their friends or family to complete their banking.
  • An automatic coin counter is available to customers to bring unwrapped mixed coins to sort and exchange for bills or to deposit into their account, free of charge for TD personal banking customers.

As part of TD Canada Trust's extended hours the branch is open Monday through Wednesday from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm; Thursday and Friday from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm; Saturday from 8:00 am to 4:00 pm; and Sunday from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm.

Environmental funding to promote sustainability
The Melinda Hall Community Garden, now in its third year of operation, offers green space to community residents, a majority of whom do not have garden space of their own. With 24 garden plots, individuals can plant their own food to support their families. Funds donated by TD will be used to support continued development as demand for space increases, and educational programming on topics such as composting and planting techniques.
