Dufferin Wind Power donates for the holidays
December 22, 2015 · 0 Comments
Dufferin Wind Power has supported the Shelburne Christmas Assistance Hamper Program for several years, however this year’s donation was a little different. With the support of its Maintenance Team from General Electric, Dufferin Wind Power collected non-perishable food items and $400 in cash donations to be delivered along with 10 turkeys just in time for the annual distribution to local families in need. The Shelburne Christmas Assistance Hamper Program is supporting nearly 60 applicant families from the Shelburne area this year. Dufferin Wind Power would like to thank all the volunteers from the Shelburne Rotary, Lions and Kinsmen clubs whom have join forces to make this years’ program a success, and Bobbi Ferguson for taking on the demanding role of coordinator.
