The United Way Perth-Huron announced a donation by Libro Credit Union of $20,000 in support of the North Huron Connection Centre project in Wingham.
The money is through Libro’s Annual Community Grant Program and United Way Perth-Huron Executive Director Ryan Erb says its another important step towards making the Connection Centre a reality.
Libro Huron-Perth Regional Manager Marty Rops says that housing is a cornerstone pillar at Libro, and they believe that success comes from partnerships like the one they have with United Way.
The North Huron Connection Centre would serve Howick, Morris-Turnberry and North Huron and is intended as a welcoming, safe space for the community’s most vulnerable citizens.
It is hoped the centre would open in February 2023.
