Congratulations To …

Our staff, who make the effort each holiday season to raise funds and collect food and toys for those less fortunate across Niagara. Of particular note is the creative fundraising of Debbie Audet, RN on the Maternal/Child Unit at St. Catharines General Site.

Debbie donated her personal time and energy to organize a fundraiser for Gillian’s Place. Gillian’s Place, formerly known as Women’s Place, is a shelter for abused women and their children. The fundraising event was held at Stella’s in St Catharines where music, draws, door prizes and a lot of fun for all who turned out raised a total of $2,660 for Gillian’s Place. In addition, Debbie organized 50/50 draws on the unit, and with the money raised purchased gifts from the Gillian’s Place wish list. Presents targeted for teenagers included clothing and gift cards to retail stores and theatres. Way to go Debbie for your generous effort. «
