Is it just about saying
thanks for heath care
treatment?
Perhaps it’s the

Legacy Gift
Another chapter for McCain
This February there was a gift of $2.25 million from Margaret
McCain to Mount St. Vincent University in Halifax, NS.
The Mount St. Vincent University will recognize the gift with
the naming of the Margaret Norrie McCain Centre for Teaching,
Learning and Research.
The McCain family has a magnificent legacy of charitable
giving, especially in Atlantic Canada. Since the death of her
husband Wallace last year, Margaret McCain has remained very
active in charitable circles.

In November of 2011 The Margaret and Wallace McCain
Foundation teamed up with the Jimmy Pratt Foundation in St.
John’s, NL, each contributing $150,000 gift to the Faculty of
Education at Memorial University of Newfoundland for early
childhood research.
