KIDS TRAVEL FUND

We still have funds available to help with transportation costs for families travelling to the IWK. We are a registered charity and can help kids in the Municipality of Barrington and Town of Clarks Harbour.  Though not a wealthy organization. we can contribute $100 for day trips and $300 if an overnight stay at a hotel is required. We have been around for a long time but just thought you might need to be reminded . All the best from all of us and stay safe traveling on these winter roads.
Just a small gang trying to make a difference .
