When Bob Campbell, our UTE National President, heard of the fire in Bathurst he asked the Bathurst Local to write up a donation resolution so that the UTE could donate to help out. Doug Gaetz, RVP Atlantic, agreed to write the resolution for me and the Executive Council approved a $5,000 donation to the Bathurst Fire Relief Fund.
Last Friday, we presented the cheque to the Mayor of Bathurst (see photo). The person in charge of the relief fund will meet with the affected people and they will decide how the funds will be spent.
Thank you to our photographer, Rachel Robichaud.
