Legion doling outs funds from poppy and bingo fundraising

Elgin Street Mission and Genevra House first to get funding

Over the next few weeks, the Dr. Fred Starr Royal Canadian Legion Branch 76 will be donating thousands of dollars to eligible community groups through its poppy and bingo lottery accounts, said a spokesperson in an email.

Kicking off the donations was a $2,000 cheque to the Elgin Street Mission on Jan. 19.

Donations have also been made to Genevra House.
