Ground breaks on new Morgan Jayne Infant Care Centre

The Morgan Jayne Project, has helped to save upwards of 250 children by supplying infant formula to stop the spread of AIDS from mother to child. It has lent its spirit to a campaign to raise funds to build the Morgan Jayne Infant Care Center. The Rotary Club of Drumheller has chipped in $10,000 to the project and made the donation on Monday, March 2 at its weekly meeting. This was enough, when combined with a private donation from former Drumheller resident and dentist Dr. Jerry Vanc to get the project off the ground.
