Huron Cancer Society wins award for big campaign success The Huron County Cancer Soci­ ety was recognized in 1991 for its successful fund raising efforts. Huron's fund raising chairperson, Joan Middleton and treasurer George Michie, both of Wingham, attended the southwestern district annual meeting in London and were recognized for their outstand­ ing campaign efforts in achieving the highest increase in donations for 1991. Mrs. Middleton estimated the increase at over $16,000. The 1990 objective was set at $130,000 and in 1991 totals came in at $154,600 from branch offices in Clinton, Exeter, Goderich, Seaforth and Wingham. Mrs. Middleton said the dona­ tions were amazing considering the economic difficulties and Huron's small population base. In her annual report, Mrs. Mid­ dleton noted, “The recession ana GST impact seems to have affected everyone, but still the residents of Huron County reaffirm their com­ mitment and dedication o the Can­ cer Society.” The Ontario Government wants your input into its 1992 program.
