A Big "Stuff That Bus" Thank you!!
Thanks to EVERYONE who contributed to the “Stuff That Bus” food drive for the Charlottetown Food Bank. We consider it a huge success when people come together to support others in need. Special thanks to Trius Transit for donating the use of the bus and driver; Home Hardware in North Rustico for delivering the food donations the next day to the Food Bank; North Rustico Co-op for the use of the grocery carts with food donations to get things started. We had wonderful crew from the Cooke Insurance Group of employees and some of their families who gave up several hours of their Canada Day for others. There is already some talk and excitement for what “we should do next year :) . Thanks to all for your contributions!!

We were pleased to be able to support the Children's Wish Foundation this year. Cooke Insurance Group sponsered decorating a Christmas tree on Great George Street in Charlottetown. We were very excited to her that Olivia, the wish child, selected ours as the winning tree! Special thanks to Kim MacDonald and Elizabeth Vickerson for doing a great job and not letting the rain dampen the spirit of Christmas and giving!
