Success Stories: Testimonials and Articles
“As a charity, the Flavie-Laurent Centre relies heavily on the generosity of others. The $1,000 funding we received from CDEM in 2020 is an example of this generosity. This has been a boost to our marketing efforts to launch a large-scale donation campaign with an ambitious goal of raising more than $2 million. This is the amount associated with the construction costs of the future warehouse on Archibald Street.”
