Arnprior Regional Health Foundation has officially reached its eighty percent target in its goal to raise the local share of costs for the Grove Nursing Home reconstruction project.
Fundraising Director Ben Gardiner says things got a big boost Monday, with the presentation of a cheque for almost 76 thousand dollars.
Gardiner says the objective for local contributions to the campaign is five million dollars.
With four million of the five million dollar goal now achieved, Gardners is aware that many of the historic fundraising events can no longer happen due to social distancing requirements imposed by the COVID crisis,
so the ARH Foundation has gotten creative with an online-only Catch the Ace Lottery that is now in its third week.
