KidSport Alberta: 12 Days of Giving
The holiday season is all about giving, and at Aspire Wealth Partners, we are thrilled
On the ninth day of Christmas, Sandra Muzia, our Senior Investment Associate, nominated the Calgary Food Bank.
Why? “The Calgary Food Bank has a far reaching and positive impact in our community,” said Sandra. “The realization that there are individuals and families in my own city, and perhaps even my neighbours who struggle to put nutritious meals on their tables resonates with me.”
“The Calgary Food Bank plays a crucial role in alleviating hunger and provides meaningful support for those in need. It is community-owned and community-supported. Volunteers work diligently and tirelessly to ensure that every person that needs access to food will get the help they need not only during the holiday season when the demand is so high, but throughout the entire year. The Calgary Food bank also promotes a strong sense of belonging and compassion as they strive towards a hunger-free community.”
Please follow along on our LinkedIn page and our website as we highlight a new charity every business day until December 22nd.
From the entire team at the Baun & Pate Investment Group, we wish you and your family a very Happy Holiday Season and Prosperous New Year.

In place of sending Christmas cards, we are embracing a tradition that reflects our core values and commitment to the Calgary community. Over 12 days, every other business day leading up to Christmas, and then daily during Christmas week, we will spotlight a charity chosen by one of our team members. Each organization holds personal meaning and embodies the true spirit of giving back. To support their important work, each featured charity will receive a minimum donation of $1,000. Together, we celebrate a season of gratitude, generosity, and community impact.
Rumours of the U.S. dollar’s decline are as persistent as they are exaggerated. In 2025, one fact stands out: The global U.S. dollar system—“King Dollar”[1]—is not vanishing. The financial, legal, and institutional architecture that makes the dollar the world’s indispensable currency remains at the heart of global finance. It is this systemic centrality, not its day-to-day market price, that ensures “King Dollar” matters most, and it is being strategically reinforced and recalibrated for a multipolar era. After the energetic “weaponization” of the dollar under the Biden administration and U.S. Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, a prudent diversification of reserves by global central banks was always going to follow.
