Your words of thanks filled us with gratitude! We asked you to share #CommentsOfKindness for the local organizations that do good things in our communities – and you came through! One charity was eligible to receive a $25,000 donation and we’re proud to award this grant to the Penticton Recovery Resource Society (Discovery House)!
“Wow, we thank you so much. We are trying to build a carriage house and this funding will be a great start towards construction” says Jerome Abraham Discovery House’s Executive Director. “Many people are on our waitlist for long-term care housing that will support their mental health. For us, recovery is about keeping a community connection, and we rely on support from organizations like Valley First, a division of First West Credit Union, so thank you so much.”
Across BC, we received over 10,800 comments exclaiming your gratitude. For every eligible comment, the First West Foundation donated $25 to the organization mentioned. That means you’ve helped us give $319,675 to 624 CRA registered non-profits!
