The Group 100 People Who Share Bruce County held an event recently at Ainsdale Golf Course’s Banquet room to hear from four community groups in the area.
Enthusiastic members enjoyed a great dinner and heard inspiring presentations from The Bridge, the Kincardine Lions Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters and the Huron Heights Playground Committee.
The Bridge is a group that serves over 900 meals a month & acts as a social centre, the Lions Club spoke of their $650,000 initiative to build a wheelchair accessible park by the Davidson Centre, as well as Big Brother Big Sisters continuing to make a difference for youngsters in the area and Huron Heights Public School fundraising for a new playground.
In the end Big Brothers Big Sisters was selected in a close vote to receive proceeds of the night of $8,600.
The group looks to pass $200,000 in total donations at its next meeting in October.
