The Canada Post Community Foundation supports registered charities, school programs and other local initiatives. Post Master Denise Allin organizes the community raffle every year and encourages local schools and groups to apply. Tickets for the raffle are $2.00 each and 3/$5.00. There are two other ways to support the fundraiser: buy a book of stamps for an extra $1 and it is donated back to the foundation; or make a monetary donation. Allin would like to thank all who contributed to the raffle.
