Donations Made To Families In Need

Four local families with children who have special needs are getting a helping hand thanks to the President's Choice Children's Charity.

The Real Canadian Superstore in Leamington held a cheque presentation on Sunday to present each of the four families with a grant worth $20,000.

Leamington Store Manager James Lea says it's always nice to give back to the community.

"To have that much money be put back in to the community in the first two months of the year is amazing," he says. "In all of the time that I've been manager here I think I've given out four grants total. So to have four already in 2015 is a big testiment to the local community and their willingness to give back."

Throughout the year, Real Canadian Superstores collect donations from customers to raise money for the children's charity.
