Westman Communications Group and community members raised $4,181 for a local food bank this month after a barbecue in the community.
The event in Delorainne on June 19 came as part of the Connecting Westman Tour. The fundraising total included a matched donation from WCG, boosting the Deloraine Food Cupboard’s efforts to enhance its existing food security programs, which support residents in the town and surrounding areas.
“Our second stop on the 2025 Connecting Westman Tour was another great success, building on the momentum from our kickoff event,” said WCG marketing manager Brandi Crowe. “We were thrilled to see the strong turnout from Deloraine residents in support of this vital community cause. It’s an honour to help create opportunities for fundraising, and we’re looking forward to continuing the Connecting Westman Tour all summer long.”
The local food bank provides food hampers as they are needed by members of the community.
The Connecting Westman Tour is a community-focused initiative where WCG hosts charity barbecue lunches throughout the summer. Hot dogs, smokies, chips, and drinks are offered with donation-based pricing, and 100 per cent of the proceeds go directly to a nominated local charity. WCG then matches the total amount raised.
