Community heart
Recently, volunteers with the Heart and Stroke Foundation of BC and Yukon walked door-to-door throughout Powell River. They raised over $12,300 which will be used for vital heart and stroke research.
Continuing support of the foundation allows health promotion and advocacy to help Canadians live longer, healthier lives.
