Nain CARE Sale

The well known Nain CARE committee continues their fundraising to help the people of Nain.

We spoke to Joan Dicker who is one of the volunteer committee members.

Dicker says the committee started about 20 years ago and it was formed to help assist people in our community in emergencies and for medical reasons.

On Saturday, October 20th they had a bake and rummage sale.

Many items at the sale were donated by a group in HVGB that was lead by Patti Penney as well as others from our community.

Also donated, were baked goods, pizza and cakes for a cake walk.

Tickets were sold on a Skor Bar cake that was donated by Alice Okkuatsiak, a Handmade drum that was donated by Simon Kohlmeister, as well as a cross stitch made by Sarah Webb. Sarah Abel and Mike Ford also made 6 pizzas for the sale.

A give away was held the next day with what was left of the sale items.

From this sale to date, we received $1,547.70 with tickets still available on the drums and cross-stitch until Saturday, October 27.

The money that was raised will go a long way for a good cause

We are also planning a Halloween dance for next Saturday to raise more funds

Thanks to everyone who made this possible and for a big turnout at their sale.
