South Cariboo Health Foundation director Joyce Rowe took care of the booth at Save-On-Foods recently where she made customers aware they could help the foundation’s Pointing the Way Campaign by donating their Save-On-More points. The 100 Mile House grocery store will match the dollar value of the points until June 30.

The South Cariboo Health Foundation’s Pointing the Way Campaign is wrapping up on June 30.

Folks still have time to donate their Save-On-More points, and Save-On-Foods will match the dollar amount value; thereby, doubling shoppers contributions to the foundation's new equipment campaign.

The campaign began in April, and as of the beginning of June, the points donated have generated approximately $4,000 in donations, says M-J Cousins, SCHF public relations and fundraising co-ordinator.

“I would like to give a huge thank-you to the people of 100 Mile for making this a very successful campaign. Save-On-Foods has been amazing to work with."

The next event planned is the Hit a Ball for Health! benefit Golf Tournament, which is on June 23 at the 108 Resort Golf Course. Cousins says people do not need to be a pro golfer to join in on the fun.

The fee is $55 per person or $85 per couple and it includes nine holes golf, a meal and prizes. The grand prize is a barbecue donated by Century Home Hardware.

Call the 108 Pro Shop at 250-791-5212 to make your reservations, as space is limited. The foundation is also accepting cash donations that can be sent to SCHF; Bag 399; 100 Mile House, B.C.; V0K 2E0. For more information, contact Cousins at 250-706-2101.
