‘Give Big, Shop Small’ event to benefit BGC Battlefords
A group of local businesses are coming together to organize a shopping promotion to benefit the BGC Battlefords (formerly known as Boys & Girls Clubs of The Battlefords).
Called “Give Big, Shop Small,” the event runs Sunday at participating stores from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., depending on the business.
Olivia Mack, a co-owner of Aurora Boutique on 100 Street in North Battleford, who is helping co-ordinate the event, hopes it will bring people out to shop locally, and support the community organization that helps youth at the same time.
Each participating business is asked to donate $50 to the BGC Battlefords. About a dozen businesses have signed on to take part so far.
