Recently, the Kinette Club of Stonewall donated $3,612.67 to the Stonewall Hospital for the purchase of an O2 Oximeter and an air mattress overlay for the current mattress.

Joanne Hubbard, president of the Kinette Club of Stonewall says the group’s motto is “serving the community’s greatest need”.

“Our latest donations are to the Stonewall Hospital, Nova House, Cystic Fibrosis, Red Cross, Stony Mountain Daycare, Starting Blocks, Woodlands Children Centre, Victoria Quilts and 55 plus. We also donate our time at the Blood Donor Clinic,” says Hubbard.
