Still Collecting Funds for the Penelakut Families

The Fire Department is still collecting cash, cheques or Walmart gift cards for our Penelakut neighbours who lost everything in the devastating fire earlier this month. We will be collecting donations up to February 12th and will take the envelope over to the Penelakut Band Office the next day.

You can always find a TIVFD fire fighter or two at Soup’s On Wednesdays or drop off your donation at the firehall after 6:30 pm on Wednesdays when we are training, or if you see a vehicle parked in front of the fire hall anytime (meaning someone is at the hall to take your gift). You can also put your donation in an envelope and drop it off at the post office for the fire department. Or pass your donation to a fire fighter neighbour that you know, and they will add it to the fund.

Thank you for your generosity. The Penelakut families truly appreciate your support.
