Donations made to "Brown Bagging It For Kids" and "Meals on Wheels"

Keepin’ It Country Line Dancing Club (KICLDC) has made a donation of $500 each to Brown Bagging It For Calgary’s Kids and Meals on Wheels.

The Executive passed a motion to make these two donations at our September meeting and felt these two organizations represented our children and seniors of Calgary.  According to Brown Bagging It For Calgary’s Kids, there are approximately 4,200 kids in Calgary who go to school without the food they need.  Our gift will help provide energy for some children to run and play, to focus and listen, to learn and make friends.  This gift will allow a child to live up to their potential by changing their day and help change their life.  The principal clients for Meals on Wheels are seniors but there are also programs open to all Calgarians who are in need of a meal service to maintain independence in their own homes.  Food is a basic need, a life necessity.  What we eat or don’t eat affects our mental, emotional and physical well-being.  More than 463,000 meals are delivered every year.

KICLDC is proud to support these two organizations.  We couldn’t do it without our registered members and volunteers so a BIG thank you to each and everyone one of you.  THANK YOU!
