New programs
In 2024 we were able to provide two single mothers with financial assistant to allow them to keep or secure affordable housing. This is new for our organization as we do have more available funds. We provided building materials for a wheelchair ramp for resident of our community. The Legion provided a donated an electric wheelchair and members of the Kiwanas Club provided the expertise and labour. This allows the individual to continue to live independently at home.
