On Dec. 9, The Kiwanis Club of The Battlefords held a Donation Dinner at Blend Restaurant.
At this function, $17,500 was handed out to seven charities in the Battlefords.
These charities were the Empty Stock Fund, Boys and Girls Club, Catholic Family Services, Battlefords Union Hospital Foundation, The Lighthouse, Battlefords Training and Education Centre,
and The Canadian Mental Health Association.
A member from each charity was present to receive the donation and make a small presentation about their specific charity.
It was an informative evening with some enjoyable socializing before and after the event.
The Kiwanis Club of the Battlefords commends all charities, in the area, not just these seven, for all their hard work and sacrifice in helping the community. The group hopes to hold another such dinner in another six months.
The Kiwanis Club of The Battlefords wishes everyone in the Battlefords a very Merry Christmas and All The Best in The New Year.
