The Starfish Pack Program at the Abbotsford Food Bank recently received a boost of funds from the Rotary Club of Abbotsford.

The club donated $5,000, raised from its playhouse raffle.

On hand to draw the ticket was vice-president Chris Dominato of Woodtone, which donated materials and built the playhouse.

President Stacey Irwin expressed appreciation for Woodtone’s generous donation and to Blackwood Building Centre for featuring the playhouse at their store and rallying ticket sales.

Special thanks was also given to fellow Rotarians for selling tickets and to organizers Bev Hasenpflug of Quantum Properties and Leslie McConnell of Myers Norris Penny Abbotsford.
