Mother’s Day basket draw at Riverdale Health Centre rehabilitation center

By Jessica Coulter

On Friday, May 8, at noon a draw was held for a huge Mother’s Day basket of stuff full of prizes donated by local businesses from around the Rivers area, as well as a couple items made by Linda Braun, Rehab Activities Director.

Debbie McMillan won the basket at the Riverdale Health Center Rehabilitation Wing.

“The reason for this fundraiser is to fund a relaxing, beautiful seating area for our clients to enjoy. Also to add to the appearance of the entrance of the Center.

With the proceeds going towards planters and seating this year. In the future we continue to add to what we have accomplished this year,” says Braun. Braun has been in the rehab activities position since last October. Previously was at Minnedosa PCH activities.

The fundraiser could not have happened without the help of the Rivers Legion, Prairie Crocus Library and the Rivers PCH Activities Department selling tickets. “I couldn't have done this without them,” say Braun.
