“Impact mechanical gave us a donation, we’ve got donations from Peavey Mart, Redhead,” he said.

After everything is collected, Daigneault will be working with the Bernice Sayese Centre to distribute the donations.

Meanwhile the P.A. Optimist Club’s annual Santa’s Anonymous Toy Drive went Wednesday night at the Raiders game.

Dave Markling, chair for the toy drive said the event was a success. The organization was able to bring over 600 toys and nearly $900 in donations.

“Thanks in great part to the Raiders and Wawanesa for stepping up and Prince Albert Firefighters Charity brought out their donation last night,” he said.

The items collected at the game will be given to The Salvation Army and they will distribute them. Markling said it is important to make sure everyone can enjoy the holiday season.

“There’s so many families in need that can’t afford it and the kids need to have a good Christmas as well,” he said.
