TWU Local 203 hosted a fund raiser held on behalf of the YWCA at Cardel Place on April 18, 2012 in Calgary, where a viewing of Eye of the Storm took place. CBTU Communications Secretary Isabelle Miller was asked to share a few words on behalf of the chapter by event coordinator Bonnie Devine. The local was able to donate $525.00 to the YWCA in support of their important work in the community. Contributors also provided substantial donations to the Calgary Food Bank, which is in need of contributions at this time of the year. A special thanks to all that attended, including chapter members Tricia Watt and Hans-Woosly Balan.
