We couldn't be prouder to hand over this cheque for $1,242.40 to the wonderful team at South West Chronic Disease Support Inc. - SWCDS Inc.

This donation represents half of the net proceeds from our recent unforgettable performance of Tomatoes Tried To Kill Me But Banjos Saved My Life.

Pictured here: Joanne Gregoire (Director of Culture, Grand Coteau Centre) presenting the funds to Gloria Illerbrun (Chair, South West Chronic Disease Support Inc.).

A massive thank you to our community for showing up and helping us support such an essential local cause. These funds were raised through ticket sales and generous sponsorships from Western Financial Group, Stark & Marsh, Standard Shaunavon, and Roderick Thienes.

Members of South West Chronic Disease Support Inc. raised additional funds over $500 by selling homemade cookies at the concert.

When creativity meets community, incredible things happen! 💛
