Dear Editor:
I am the owner of Hair With Care in Fergus.
On Sept. 8, 2022, I held a fundraiser for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and raised $2,850. On Oct. 31 I presented a cheque to Sara Felshe, senior fundraising relationship manager from Heart and Stroke Ontario Southwest Region.
I would like to say a special thank-you to the community for coming out, and local businesses in Fergus, Elora and Belwood for donating raffle prizes for the event.
Also thanks to Mary Brown’s Chicken, A&W Restaurant and Pizza Hut for their cash donations, and to Peter at Tim Hortons for donating coffee and donuts for this event. I am very thankful and appreciative of all the special people who helped make this fundraiser possible and I want to apologize for being so late to show my gratitude.
This September I am looking forward to holding my third annual event for the Heart and Stroke Foundation. I hope I can count on the community once again for their support.
Carrie Anne Kierstead,
Fergus
