Burns Lake Rotary Club – Lakes District Tragedy Relief Fund

 

The Burns Lake Rotary Club is accepting donations for the Lakes District Tragedy Relief Fund. The Rotary Club will also be organizing a benefit on Saturday, February 4th with proceeds to assist the Lakes District Tragedy Relief Fund over the coming weeks and months as our community deals with the challenges brought on by the devastating fire and explosion at Babine Forest Products in Burns Lake.

 

The Lakes District Tragedy Fund was established 12 years ago and assists community members in times of need. Some examples of past assistance: medical transportation costs, groceries, rebuilding… The fund is overseen by a committee of community members who assist with screening the applicants who ensure their needs are adequately addressed.

 

Donations may be made to the Burns Lake Rotary Club/Lakes District Tragedy Fund at PO Box 616, Burns Lake, BC, V0J 1E0, or online (Using PayPal, VISA or Mastercard) at www.rotaryburnslake.org

 

Alternately, donations are being accepted in the name of the Lakes District Tragedy Relief Fund at any CIBC branch in BC.

 

Donations for the benefit and silent auction would be gratefully accepted. Please contact Terri Dickson at 250-695-6684.

 

 

 Thanks
