The House of Lazarus Food Bank in South Mountain suffered a devastating fire last month. They are now in need of funds and donations of food to restock and rebuild their services, so necessary to many people in our area.
The Kemptville District Hospital Auxiliary is holding Hey Day, one of eastern Ontario’s largest indoor garage sales and a key fundraiser for the Hospital.
The two charities – House of Lazarus and Kemptville Hospital Auxiliary – are joining forces at the upcoming Hey Day event, happening on Friday June 9 (6pm to 9pm) and Saturday June 10 (9am to 1pm) at the North Grenville Municipal Centre in Kemptville.
A large donation bin will be available inside the Municipal Centre to accept donations of nonperishable food items, and donations of cash will be gratefully accepted too.
So mark your calendars for June 9 and 10 to come out and support these two important organizations in our communities
