Our 'Going Green' Committee organized our 1st Annual Share the Warmth Campaign and it was a huge success!

Georgina Heather, representing the Biggar Family Centre, along with Murray Sunderland, 'Going Green' committee member, gathered up 2 truckloads of warm winter clothing to take to the Family Centre.  Thank you to all who donated clothing to keep our community warm!
