CLW Employees Exceed United Way Campaign Goal
Employees of Community Living Wallaceburg, people supported and the public gathered at MacDonald Park along the St. Clair Parkway on Friday, December 16 for a cheque presentation with representatives from the United Way of Chatham-Kent. Staff members raised $5,624, well surpassing their $5,000 goal. The agency’s Executive Director, David Katzman,
was then joined by the United Way’s North Chatham-Kent Campaign Co-Chair, Travis Hooper, and the agency’s Coordinator, Communication and Fund Development, Ron Laroche, for a polar bear plunge in Wallaceburg’s Snye River. The trio honoured their pledge to wade into the icy water after the campaign target was met. They agreed to a second dip in the river when some employees pledged additional dollars to the campaign.
