Why A Campaign For Central Manitoba Children’s Aid
Charles R. Fraser, Executive Director, explains why the Children’s Aid Society of Central Manitoba conducts annual fall canvasses for funds. He notes the budget needs about 120000 yearly, with 18000 raised privately to balance, since municipal grants total around 3500. Canvasses support a multi-area quota system planned months ahead, and grants are only partial support for welfare costs.
