This week, the Wiarton Salvation Army stopped by to pick up their 84 backpacks.

We’re excited to share that 1,290 backpacks are spoken for, for this upcoming school year. That is more than half of our goal of 2,500 for this season!

These backpacks help local students from Bruce Grey start the school year prepared and ease the burden on families.
