The Community Foundation of Halton North (CFHN) says it has reached its goal of $100,000 that it had for its 10-hour webathon.
The event was held on October 2nd through both a Pheedloop stream and a physical presence at the Georgetown and Milton Farmers’ Markets. The money raised was to be split among ten local charities, including:
- Halton Learning Foundation
- Community Living North Halton
- ROCK
- Halton Hills Public Library
- Milton District Hospital Foundation
- Townsend-Smith Foundation
- Canadian Caribbean Association of Halton
- ArtSpark through the Town of Milton
- Links2Care
One of the goals for CFHN is to educate the public on the importance of providing everlasting support and to continue growing endowments that are granted back into the community every year. Darryl Demille, Board member added, “CFHN also makes it very convenient to donate once knowing it will flow throughout the community to many causes, now and forever.”
G. Bradford (Brad) Clements, Chair of the CFHN board, was enthusiastic about the event, which marks CFHN’s 10 years.
“The Board of CFHN was pleased to lead this first ever Webathon that will provide support to many charities serving Halton Hills and Milton.”
