The Canadian Mental Health Association Thompson has a thoughtful gift idea that’s also practical.

They are holding their first cookbook fund raiser just in time for Christmas and books are available to order now.

Stephanie Hysert with the CMHA has details.

“So it is a proud partnership between friends at CMHA Thompson, residents of Thompson and our outlining communities. So it’s a 150 recipes inside the book that covers everything from appetizers to main dishes and desserts and so many more.”

Proceeds will go toward programming at the CMHA and purchasing a billboard.

They will also purchase better organizers for Charlie’s Thrift Store so as to provide better access to the store.

Cookbooks are $20 each and pre-orders are being taken now.

Call Vicki at 204-677-6058 or drop by the main office at 43 Fox Bay.

Cookbooks will arrive before Christmas.
