BURLINGTON, ON.
The $100,000 mark for the Burlington Disaster Relief fund has been passed.
To be exact the number for Monday evening was $111,985,00
More is needed.
By the end of the week the Disaster Relief committee should have numbers from the Red Cross which will quantify the damage – they will know how many houses were damaged and the extent of that damage.
I am somewhat shocked at the little amount of money donated to-date.
For being “The Second Best City In Canada”, why is the community not digging deeper. or digging at all, into their pockets to make a donation? Are all “the have’s” content to keeping their wealth and letting the “have not’s” fend for themselves? Very disappointing!
