What a way to celebrate Canada Day!
Canadian flags were handed out to attendees at Summerfest Canada Day (Flags provided by Kennedy’s Flags).
The Rotary Club of Erin is pleased to announce that $12,500 was raised to support four organizations making a difference in our community and beyond: Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington, East Wellington Community Services, Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis, and Bracelet of Hope.
Here’s just a glimpse of what your support will make possible:
Children’s Foundation of Guelph and Wellington — Supporting the Send Kids to Camp program, helping local children experience camp.
East Wellington Community Services — Supporting outreach to vulnerable community members with practical assistance and essential supplies.
Guelph-Wellington Women in Crisis — Supporting the Rural Women’s Support Program and helping survivors of violence rebuild their lives.
Bracelet of Hope — Supporting mobile health units providing vital healthcare to remote families in Lesotho, Africa, as well as an upgrade to the kitchen in one of its foster homes.
Your support turned a day of celebration into an opportunity to give back.
