“Thank you to our amazing Schubert Centre and community members, individuals, businesses and grant funders for your support and fundraising efforts to help the Schubert purchase a new furnace,” wrote the excited Schubert Centre on its Facebook page in making the announcement. “Today the dream becomes a reality.”
The popular Vernon seniors facility held fundraisers and received grants and individual donations to help purchase the new furnace, being installed by a crane at the back of the 30th Avenue building.
