NCIX: Improving care for the entire community

When it comes to caring for a community and ensuring its health, Richmond-based NCIX Computers & Electronics understands there’s a role for all.

“We live in Richmond. We work in Richmond. We want to be part of the community,” says Sam Li, NCIX marketing manager.

And, as this year’s Presenting Sponsor for Richmond Hospital Foundation’s 8th annual Community Cares Month, NCIX hopes to provide an example for others as well.

“Health care is important to us all. We all will need it at some point,” adds Li, who grew up in Richmond. “My own grandmother received care at Richmond Hospital and I had the opportunity to see firsthand there’s a need.”

Community Cares Month is a month-long fundraising promotion that unites members of our diverse community for a common cause—to donate to improve patient care at Richmond Hospital.

With multiple fundraising events and promotion in English, Cantonese, and Mandarin, Community Cares Month reaches into our community like no other event in Richmond.

Headquartered in Richmond, NCIX Computers & Electronics is one of Canada’s leading technology retailers, offering a wide array of electronics, computers, laptops, mobile services, TVs, computer hardware, IT services and computer repair.

With that business perspective, Li says he understands the role for donors to help replace aging medical equipment and infrastructure in a rapidly evolving field. “These days, health care relies on technology,” Li adds. “We all want health care to be there for us when we need it.”

In celebration of Community Cares Month, NCIX Computers & Electronics is holding an in-store promotion at its two Richmond locations at Aberdeen Centre and Lansdowne Centre.

From now until September 26, when purchasing any of the designated Community Cares Products in-store, 100 per cent of proceeds of the sales will be donated to Richmond Hospital Foundation to help improve patient care.
