The Kin Club of Valley East held a Yellow Brick Road
fundraiser to raise awareness and money for the Canadian Cystic
Fibrosis Foundation last weekend at the Hanmer Valley Shopping
Centre.
"It really turned out to be huge success," wrote Jeanine Bolger
in an e-mail to Northern Life.
"We had three tables set up in the mall, one for the selling of
the foot prints, one with Cystic Fibrosis awareness materials
and I represented Kinsmen & Kinette Clubs of Canada as the
district membership director with information on who we are as
an organization.
The group raised $817.92 for Cystic Fibrosis with the sale of
the foot prints and silent auction.
The picture for the silent action was donated by ALL INK
located in the Hanmer Valley Shopping Centre and the winner was
Jean Proulx of Kapuskasing.
The club wishes to thank Bob Kirwan, management and staff of
the Hanmer Valley Shopping Centre and all who purchased a
footprint on the yellow brick road.The money raised helps "us
to get one step closer to finding a cure for Cystic Fibrosis,"
Bolger said.
