Staff from the Grand River Employment and Training agency (GREAT) raised and gave almost $1 800 to the Six Nations Community Food Bank. On Tuesday, staff met with Mary Monture, chair on the board of directors for the food bank, to hand off the cheque. Every year, beginning in January, GREAT gives its staff the opportunity to dress casually on Fridays, if they put a loonie in their donation jar. At the end of the year the staff decide together on a charitable organization in the community to donate the money to.
