A cheque for $13,526 shows how a community of newcomers is helping to give back to their homeland.
Workers at the Brandon Maple Leaf plant campaigned to raise relief funds for the Red Cross, after devastating floods struck El Salvador last year during the hurricane season. Rene Dominguez, a production supervisor, and Victoria Recinos, a stores person, spearheaded the campaign.
Maple Leaf Foods Brandon matched the first $5,000 donated by the employees at the plant as well as Maple Leaf Foods corporate headquarters donated an additional $5,000 to the Ontario Red Cross to help with the relief effort.
