Board Game Night Fundraiser to Replace Stolen Cancer Center Equipment

Kitchener, ON (Canada) — Local residents will be holding a board game night fundraiser to "rescue" gaming equipment stolen from a children's cancer program earlier this month. The Game Rescue Board Game Night fundraiser in support of HopeSpring Cancer Support Centre will be held at the Rum Runner Pub in downtown Kitchener. Funds raised through entry fees, raffles, a silent auction and a game exchange at the event will purchase a new Wii U video game console for the cancer support centre. A Wii U along with a laptop and projector was stolen from HopeSpring on July 10 and has yet to be recovered. The equipment was part of an integral program for children with cancer, and their siblings, that helped educate them about the disease while providing them with a sense of normalcy.  www.fundraising-ideas.org
