For those wondering where the money from your donations is used in our community, a recent donation was made to West Lincoln Community Care by Lincoln Rotary to help support their Backpack Program.
"Thank you for taking an interest in West Lincoln Community Care and our Backpack program. We are a registered charity and have been assisting families since 1984. Every August we provide backpacks, lunch bags, all the supplies and school snacks for children of West Lincoln. Last year we assisted 110 students. At this time, we currently already have 102 students registered. Canadian Tire Bank provides every child with a brand-new pair of running shoes and our organization purchases the supplies necessary to equip kids for success in the Fall."
