The Southwest's new proposed Handi Van.

 

The Shaunavon Handi Van Association held their Steak Night Fundraiser this past weekend in Shaunavon.

They are raising funds to purchase a van that will enable southwest residents with special needs to maintain a level of freedom and mobility that they would not otherwise have.

The Steak Night Fundraiser included a supper, auctions and entertainment and they raised just over $10,000 towards the purchase of the Handi Van.

Sara Stukings is the Co-Director of the Shaunavon Handi Van Association. She says, "Just thank you to everyone who helped us pull the evening off and who came out to support and hear about what we're doing and what we're all about and helping the southwest."

Stukings adds that they are now needing to raise an additional $40,000 and they are looking a setting up another fundraising event for this fall.
