Northern Health Connections

This past weekend on May 25th, we had a Stuff a Bus fundraiser for those affected by the wildfires in Fort Nelson. We have gathered all the donations and loaded them up ready to go to Fort Nelson! With no room left in the available luggage space we are off to drop off much needed relief supplies to the Fort Nelson Aboriginal Friendship Center.

BC Bus North would like to thank Diversified Transportation BC, Northern Health Connections, Stinger Welding, Save-On-Foods the PG Kodiaks Football Club team and Walmart for making our Stuff the Bus event a success.

We'd also like to give a special shoutout to everyone who came out and donated. Without you the event couldn't have been what it was. Thank you.

NH Connections is teaming up with BC Bus North to head up an initiative to gather and deliver supplies to help the families that were displaced due to the wildfires in Fort Nelson. We will be gathering food, toiletries, and pet food for donations, and the goods will be delivered to Dawson Creek and Fort St. John community centers that took in evacuees.
