Fonthill News

What started out in May as a great human interest presentation by guest speaker Mrs. Gina Di Lorenzo of the Quilts of Valour, Niagara Canada Chapter (QOV) quickly offered an opportunity for the Rotary Club of Fonthill to get involved!  QOV is a registered charity, non-profit, volunteer-based national program that started in 2006.  Since then, in honour of their service and dedication to our country, QOV has provided comfort to Canada’s veterans in their time of need by having donated over 5000 quilts!  President Elect Paul Snack immediately identified a disabled veteran now living in a long term care facility who would be a worthy recipient of QOV’s generosity.
