Three local organizations donated more than $1,000 on Nov. 14 to Canuck Place Children’s Hospice (Dave Lede House) in Abbotsford.

The donation was made by the Electa chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star, and the Abbotsford Lodge and Pacific Lodge of the Freemasons.

The donation was made to honour the first responders of Abbotsford for their tirefless efforts to serve and protect the community.

The Order of the Eastern Star has been supporting local charities for more than 100 years, while the Shriners and Freemasons have served the community for more than 150 years.
