Take a look back at an old fundraising campaign for Vanier in 1967! 📰

June 6, 1967, a fundraiser was placed as a supplement in May Court Magazine for the London Free Press to help raise $50,000 for Vanier.

A piece of London's history: May Court Magazine highlighted London businesses that paid to advertise in it. They also featured May Court members and their families, who were primarily prominent city residents. Take a look to see if you recognize anyone!
