LOCAL HEALTHCARE BENEFITS FROM BOSCO FUNDRAISER

St. John Bosco Catholic School provided a generous donation to the St. Francis Valley Healthcare Foundation (SFVHF) recently. School council held a Candy Gram fundraiser on Halloween and Valentines Day and raised $400.

Students chose to designate $200 to the Growing Together Emergency Department Redevelopment Campaign for St. Francis Memorial Hospital, $100 for Valley Manor to provide birthday presents to residents, and $100 for Madawaska Valley Hospice Palliative Care’s loan cupboard rental fee.

Thank you to everyone who organized and supported this student-led fundraiser. Pictured, left to right: Teacher Sabrina Coulas, students Lauren Kerr and Janna MacDonald, and SFVHF Communications & Fundraising Officer Christine Hudder.
