🎄 Spreading Holiday Cheer with the Rotary Club of St. John’s Northwest! 🎄
Yesterday, Regina Russell from our club proudly delivered $5,075 to both Thrive and the Single Parent Association of NL as part of our Christmas Giving initiative. 🎁
There are over 300 people in the city experiencing homelessness. Thrive will use the funds to host a delicious and festive Christmas turkey dinner on December 19th, helping to ensure they have a warm meal this holiday season. 🍽️❤️
The Single Parent Association of NL, with Executive Director Jennifer Tarrant and her team, expressed their gratitude. With over 800 single parents registered for their Christmas Magic Fundraiser, our donation will significantly help meet the needs of single parents this year. 🙌✨
We are deeply grateful to support these incredible organizations and make a positive impact in our community this holiday season! 🌟🤝
