Christmas in June




Our Father's Day draws went very well. We were able to get a table at Giant Tiger in Dartmouth to sell some of our tickets at. The Gift Basket brought in $100 and the Cheesecake brought in $134. Winners were Charles Grady and Karen Clements. We received $130 in donations from other sources, we raised $94 from an online fundraising site located at http://gogetfunding.com/santa-under-the-bridge/ and today we received funding from the Dartmouth Community Health Board in the amount of $500 as part of their Community Development Fund. Naturally, we dressed in our Santa Suits to receive the check.

Last House on the Block Society recently partnered up with the Take Action Society to create a Knitting Group. Our knitters are teaching them to knit and they, in turn are teaching young people to knit. Pictured below is a scarf made by Anne, one of the volunteers learning to knit.
