Thank you for a very successful fundraising campaign for the families affected by the fire in Wallace. Together we raised a final total of over $16,000!! Amazing!

This concludes WADA's involvement in raising funds for the fire at Aquashell. Any future donations should be sent directly to Aquashell.

Stayed tuned for the development of a permanent committee established for future community needs under the title of Wallace Area Relief Fund (WARF). Volunteers are needed for this very worthy committee. If interested, please reach out to WADA.

Reminder that WADA's AGM is set for March 2nd, 2026 at 7PM and everyone is welcome.
