BGC Battlefords gifted new building
Children of the Battlefords will one day have more space to play thanks to a donation from a local family.
“It was completely unexpected and out of the blue,” said Nicole Combres, BGC Battlefords executive director.
“The surprise and the shock when we heard the good news was pretty intense, yeah, we’re just feeling all sorts of grateful.”
The donation of a building – the Lifeways Integrative Wellness – and located at 301, 114th Street was given to the non-profit by Gilles and Martina Fransoo last week and the organization plans to consult the community as to how it may be used.
