In 2010 Berwick Retirement Communities committed to raise enough money to send 11 students to school through the Zambia Mission Fund Canada.
Residents and staff from each Berwick set their goal and started fundraising. Events such as: a Christmas silent auction, bake sales, raffles, Games for Guys Carnival, Billy Miner Day festivities, staff sports day and a country fair all helped us reach our goal.
At the end of the year Berwick raised enough to send 14 students to school! In addition, there were enough personal donations to send another 5 students. We are extremely honoured to support such a wonderful charity such as the Zambia Mission Fund Canada which was created by Joan and Steve Mann. We wish the students well.
