Cancer fund •
over by $4,000
The Exeter Branch of the
Canadian Cancer Society has
exceeded its fund raising
objective so far this year by
over $4,000.
The Exeter branch set an
objective of $11,000 for 1979
and so far has managed to
raise $15,565.03. Of this total,
$9,666.96 has come from
door-to-door campaigning;
$1,433.34 has come from the
sale of daffodils; and
$2,248.73 has come from
special events staged.
The Huron County Unit has
set a goal of $45,000 for 1979
and has already raised
$67,099. This total is up 23
percent from last year when
$50,730 was raised. Given the
population of Huron County,
the money raised so far this
year means a donation of
about $1.20 per person.
The Canadian Foresters
organization is one of the
major suporters of the
Canadian Cancer Society's
cause. On July 11, the
Canadian Foresters Life
Insurance Society of
Brantford presented the
National Office of the Cancer
Society with a cheque for
$61,500.. Of that amount
$20,408.19 is the Ontario
Division's share. The total
contribution made by the
Foresters in the period 1976-
79 is $122,130.83.
The amount donated to the
Huron County Unit by the
Foresters this year at the
national level so far is
$4,658.56. From 1976 to 1979,
the Benmiller Court of the
Foresters has donated
$4,803.50 to the Cancer
Society; the Constance Court
$2,571.08; and the Huron
District Court $2,911 for total
of $10,285.58.
