Donation
The Board and Volunteers at the Killarney and Area Food Bank were absolutely "gob-smacked" as Secretary Giselle Beaupre put it - as the recipients of the Hy Life Fun Days fundraising campaign, we received a whopping $40,000.00 for the Food bank. The proceeds of this donation will go towards a walk in cooler at the Food bank to boost storage of fresh fruit, vegetables and eggs for the Food Bank! We can't thank Cori Bridgeman and her team enough for the amazing donation!! It was a wonderful day yesterday with good food, good friends and one very good employer who believes in giving back to its community. THANK YOU Hy Life and all your sponsors!!
