Citizen’s Bridge Maple Ridge, a community initiative empowering youth, made a donation of $2,700 to The Youth Wellness Centre, on Thursday.

The Youth Wellness Centre is run through Maple Ridge-Pitt Meadows Community Services and provides support for children and youth, along with their parents, facing substance use or mental illness.

The money was raised from two fundraising events – Jammin’ for Youth in April and another event in May featuring Elvis tribute artist Randy Elvis Friskie.

CANCELLED

The next fundraising event has been cancelled that was to be held at the Royal Canadian Legion, Branch 88 on June 24 due to low ticket sales.
