The Fort City Kinettes have been hosting events and fundraising celebrations in Thunder Bay for almost 82 years! They have hosted The Royal Ball, worked Bingos, and made butter tarts all in support of creating a positive impact in our community, and serving the community’s greatest need.

Today, on Giving Tuesday, members for the Fort City Kinette Club are thrilled to present a donation of $5,000 to George Jeffrey Children’s Foundation in support of the Give the Gift of Voice Campaign!

“George Jeffrey Children’s Centre is a staple in the community,” says President Michelle Woods-Barstead. “Our club members are aware of the amazing, positive impact they have had, and continue to have on children and their families in Thunder Bay and area.”

This generous gift will go directly to supporting the purchase of two specialized speech-generating iPads, and two state-of-the-art eye gaze cameras. The Augmentative Communication Program at George Jeffrey Children’s Centre, and these cutting-edge technologies are lifelines for both children and adults as this program supports clients who require assistance to communicate – they literally give them a voice!

The Fort City Kinettes have personally seen the impact of George Jeffrey Children’s Foundation through the many services which have allowed children to reach their greatest potential. Each child has an individualized plan with a team of specialists so that their needs are addressed, and that has really resonated with their group of volunteers.

The Fort City Kinettes have a proud history of giving in our community, with support going to many local organizations. They have been a major supporter of George Jeffrey Children’s Foundation, donating more than $18,000 over the years!

Thank you for helping to give the gift of voice!

Our act of kindness was for one of our own. In December Bob Thompson fell and broke his neck and Barb hurt her hip trying to help him. Our club has been helping with home cooked meals for our own Kin Family. ❤️ Happy to report Barb and Bob are on the mend.
