SPEAKER:
RUSS introduced Catherine Rivera from the Ste Louise Outreach Centre of Peel. She tells us that they have been serving the area for 33 years, and this past Christmas served 2,063 families. Very interesting to hear how they select and help people. RANDY presented her with a cheque for $5,000 from our club as part of our commitment to them.
They are still looking for a new building, as the one they have is too small. Any ideas?
