“A portion of the funds raised will be given to the residents’ support fund,” said Denise.
She said the fund was established several years ago with the purpose of assisting residents in need of financial assistance.
“Times are tough so the home tries to help out where it can.”
Denise said the remaining money will be used for maintenance and future projects at the village.
