Supplied by the United Way Sault and District…
We are happy to announce that our 7th annual Trades Day of Caring was a wonderful success. We were fortunate that we had a beautiful and sunny day to work outdoors and help seniors to prepare their homes for winter. Some of the things that were done were: raking leaves, putting plastic on windows, and moving objects into sheds.
We had 15 trades students and 1 social service worker student from Sault College volunteer to help out in the event. They helped to make the day a success.
With the generosity of our annual sponsors for this event, PUC, National Supply, Lyon’s Tim-Br Mart, and Home Depot, we were able to have the funds and materials needed for this event. A special thank you to local media for covering this great day!
We hold this event each year, usually in October. If you would like to learn more or have any questions, please contact the United Way at 705-256-7476 ext. 209.
