A new partnership is helping give every child in the community the chance to go to camp.
KidSport North Bay and the YMCA of Northeastern Ontario are teaming up with the North Bay Battalion as part of the Y’s Fill the Bus campaign.
The partnership with KidSport aligns so nicely with the YMCA,” says Nicole Beattie, Senior Vice President Strategic Growth and Advancement, YMCA of Northeastern Ontario.
Dave Mendicino, KidSport Board Chair, says thanks to sponsorship, the 50/50 jackpot in Oct. 19 will start at $2,000.
He says thanks to their partnership with the Battalion, KidSport has gone from supporting 40-50 kids a year to about 350 this year.
