Dorothy Faris and the Children's Hospital

Yesterday I was at Safeway at the corner of Osborne and Kylemore where the efforts of workers at Safeway and members of the Annie A. Bond Guild of the Children's Hospital were recognized for their efforts. Together they have raised more than $7,000 to help support care for children and the research to improve that care. The first photo shows the check presentation. In the second photo, I am with Dorothy Faris, president of Annie A. Bond Guild. Dorothy is an amazing person. She was one of the founding members of the Children's Hospital Book Market, and has been President of the Annie A. Bond Guild for many years. In 1986, she received the Teddy Award for all her efforts on behalf of children in Manitoba.
