Drumheller Family and Community Support Services (FCSS) was one of the 50 winners of the Aviva Community Fund for a grant of $10,000.
FCSS entered the contest to fund a new welcome program for the community.
“We can’t wait to get started on creating the program to offer support to newcomers to Drumheller,” explained April Harrison of Drumheller FCSS. “Part of the program will be to create a number of block buddies and so if you are interested in volunteering for this program please contact Drumheller FCSS”.
“It is amazing what a small town like Drumheller can do,” outlined Laura Dougan, Community Services Coordinator. “Thank you so much to everyone who voted, we are thrilled to win the funds and help support new people to our community.”
FCSS will be launching the program in the near future.
The Aviva Community Fund donated over $1 million to fund charitable initiatives across Canada, and their theme this year is bringing people together to create change within their community.
