During the 2016-2017 curling season, Riverview Curling Club will once again support the theme of “SWEEPING CANCER FROM OUR HOUSE”. Their fourth annual fund-raising bonspiel will be held November 10-13th, 2016. This year will include a raffle of two WestJet tickets, for anywhere WestJet flies! A special thank-you goes out to WestJet for supporting their club and this worthwhile cause.
With the help of local Brandon businesses their club has just three years have donated an amazing $13,710.88 to support cancer patients here in western Manitoba. A special fund has been established to provide assistance for patients who do not have the financial resources to cover the costs of basic necessities related to their treatment. This could include the cost of non-prescription medications, food, transportation, or accommodation, and will be accessed when all other avenues of funding have been explored.
As a local business, the Riverview Curling Club is asking you for support of this fund-raising initiative by means of donations of items to be raffled off during their event, or by financial support to be used towards this great cause. All support will be gratefully acknowledged throughout the curling year, both at the curling club and on their website (www.riverviewcurling.ca). For more information or to arrange pickup of your donation, please contact Maxine or Corina at sweepingcancer@gmail.com.
Thank you for your support in making this a successful initiative and for helping them with “SWEEPING CANCER FROM OUR HOUSE”.
