Letters to the Editor...Fundraising help is appreciated

Dear editor, Fellow employees at the Vanier Centre and Maplehurst Complex in Milton have been actively helping me to get closer to my fundraising goal for the Princess Margaret Hospital's Weekend to End Breast Cancer. They recently held fundraisers, including a well-attended luncheon on March 22. The events have raised more than $1,180 to get me closer to my personal goal. A third-year veteran in the event, I am looking forward to the 60 km walk, despite last year's cold night "sleeping in the tents". On March 23, Milton's Wal-Mart hosted a pot luck and dress down day to raise funds for the walk. Many thanks to all Wal-Mart staff, in particular to Suzanne Tait and her Special Events Fundraising Team. I would like to extend my sincere thanks to the following merchants who donated products and raffle prizes to assist us in our events: Milton's Loblaws and Sobey's Express, Shear Pleasure Salon & Spa, Shopper's Drug Mart (Main St.), Acton's Giant Tiger, Sobeys, Pharma Plus, Shopper's Drug Mart and Home Hardware, Georgetown's Real Canadian Food Store, A&P, Brian's Food Basics.
