A group of Burns Lake residents is hoping to gather 100 people willing to contribute $100 each, twice a year, to a local nonprofit.
The idea of creating the group, called ‘100 Burns Lakers who give a damn,’ started during a social media workshop in Burns Lake earlier this spring.
“The presenter was part of a similar group in Vancouver and he told the class about it during his presentation,” said Darrell Hill, one of the organizers of the new group.
