The local Northern Neighbors Foundation continues to participate in a matching grant program offered by the Thomas Sill Foundation.  The local Foundations Dave Kendall explains Thomas Sill says if they can raise up to 50 thousand new dollars they would give them on a one for two basis up to 25 thousand dollars and they’ve done really well in almost reaching the 40 thousand dollar mark so they’re looking at about another 10 thousand dollars to receive their maximum grant.

The Northern Neighbors Foundation supports a wide range of local charitable projects with the interest earned from donations received and invested and includes the communities of Flin Flon, Creighton, Denare Beach, Cranberry Portage, Sherridon and Snow Lake.  For information on making a donation contact Betty at 204-687-4453 or drop in to the Flin Flon Public Library.
