Operation Red Nose Thompson receives 3rd most donations in province

 

Thompsonites continue to prove their generosity.

 

Operation Red Nose in Thompson received the 3rd most donations in the province at over $6,000.

 

The biggest night for donations was not surprisingly New Years Eve, with over $900 coming in that night alone. All the money will be going to youth groups in the City.

 

Planning Committee Coordinator Tony Taylor says they saw more volunteers, more donations, and gave more rides this past holiday season than the year before. 143 people volunteered with the designated driving service, providing 304 rides.

 

Taylor says they will be recognizing those who volunteered their time, at a volunteer wrap up party in the coming weeks.
