Habitat Northumberland to expand donation pick-up program with Trillium funding
A grant from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) will enable Habitat for Humanity Northumberland to expand its donation pick-up program to five days a week for its ReStore.
The funding of $82,400 from the OTF’s Resilient Communities Fund was used to purchase a new reliable truck to meet the demand of pick-up donations, which are key to operating the ReStore.
Monday, July 24, Habitat staff, volunteers and board members welcomed OTF representatives along with Northumberland-Peterborough South MPP David Piccini and Ontario Minister of Tourism, Culture, and Sport Neil Lumsden while Cobourg council was also represented by a few councillors and Mayor Lucas Cleveland for the announcement.
