Some NICE NEWS in these times..
« on: June 18, 2021, 10:04:36 AM »
 So a big surprise  for all this years Grads in the Kelowna BC area.., Shool district #23.
 A semi anonymous donor couple decided to reward thisvyears Grads for completing school in these different and trying times..  so they have donated 500.00  to every graduating student..
 How cool is that ? GREAT thing to do... and they only gave out their first names the donors..

Very cool,  I wonder what the grads will do with the $?
I'm willing to bet 90% will be stimulating the economy with it, 10% will save or invest it.

 The donors have now been identified, they bave a child that is a grad this year..
 Too bad for anyone that quit  during their last year .

 It was really sad for the school my nephew is  gradding from.. 700 grads roughly..
 on May 26 there was a horrific accident  a few miles from the school, and it took the lives of 3 of the grads...very sad..
