December, 2010 - Home Hardware &
Hecate Strait Employment Development Society

Management & staff of Home Hardware and representatives of Hecate Strait Employment Development Society got together recently to make a generous donation, with an awesome assortment of goodies, just in time for Christmas! This is the 2nd year they joined efforts to help a family in Prince Rupert. This Christmas, they decided that the Prince Rupert Wildlife Rehab Shelter would be that family and recognize the efforts of Nancy & Gunther Golinia, for their tireless work with wildlife in our area. Hecate Strait staff collected food, blankets and money to help towards this presentation and Home Hardware also contributed a vast variety of items to the Golinia's. Many, many thanks to Danielle Dalton & everyone at Hecate Strait and to Brian Hunchuck & the staff from Home Hardware.

We thank them wholeheartedly for their act of kindness towards the work of the Shelter!
