The Impact Cuba dinner fundraiser hosted by the Thompson Pentecostal Assembly this past weekend was an overwhelming success.

Lead Pastor Mel Versluis says the event raised just over $4, 000, surpassing their goal of $2, 500.

Versluis thanked those who took part in the fundraising, adding that people were generous with food and financial donations.

The money raised from the fundraiser will be used for mission teams that will be heading to Cuba later this month to cover the projected construction costs and supply medical aid in the country.
