Paystation Inc. and the CPA (Canadian Police Association) have established the Robert Warner Memorial Fund, to assist families of police officers killed in the line of duty.
What is the CPA-Robert Warner Memorial Fund?
The CPA-Robert Warner Memorial Fund is a joint endeavour between the Canadian Police Association and PAYstation Inc. The goal is to ensure that there are enough monies in the Fund to be able to distribute an immediate, onetime financial assistance payment to the families of officers who lose their lives in the line of duty. We want to help alleviate some of the financial worries in the days following an officer’s death.
An initial donation of $10,000 was contributed by PAYstation CEO and Chair Robert Warner and to help maintain the Fund, the company will donate $10 from each of its iDNA™ cheque orders.
Police officers everywhere can have a direct hand in helping to grow the Fund by telling friends and family members who own businesses to look at PAYstation’s iDNA™ cheques.
Why iDNA™ cheques?
There is a huge push for Canadian businesses to become compliant with the Canadian Payments Association’s new cheque standard CPA 006, which becomes mandatory June 30, 2007. Most businesses will have to order new cheques to meet the standard. With this pressure, this is a great opportunity for the Fund to grow very quickly in its first year.
These changes are part of an industry-wide plan to modernize Canada’s cheque clearing system through image technology. These changes include standardizing sizes, images and information elements of the cheque so that each cheque can be captured as an image that will be exchanged through the clearing process.
PAYstation’s new iDNA™ cheque is the latest breakthrough in cheque security in the last 20 years. The new security enhancements were integrated into the cheque-design and based on the feedback of experts in fraud prevention from Canadian banks and law enforcement agencies.
The Memorial Fund will benefit from another donation and the business owner will gain a peace of mind knowing the best cheque protection is right at hand.
