Until March 31, BC Liquor Stores customers can donate $1 or more to support Dry Grad celebrations in their communities.
The money collected is used by school districts’ secondary school Dry Grad planning committees to plan alcohol-free school graduation events and activities.
This year, 55 school districts, including our local School District 27, are participating in the campaign.
The contributions by liquor store customers top up funds raised by parents, students and teachers who work all year to raise funds for dry graduation activities.
Last year, BC Liquor Stores customers throughout the province donated $512,604 in support of Dry Grad events.
Chocolates are given to customers in recognition of their donation to the Dry Grad campaign.
