The Yellowknife Community Foundation has given the Yellowknife Seniors’ Society a grant of $5,000 to support our Lunch With A Bunch program.  The funds will be used to support 6 local youth groups prepare hot, nutritious lunches for the seniors.  The youth in turn, will receive funds towards a special project that they may be fundraising for, such as a Band Trip, hockey tournament or language and cultural exchange trips.
