Nursing Students Raise Funds for Sunshine Foundation

Students of Fanshawe's Collaborative Nursing program used a night out to raise money for a great cause.  

The Ray of Sun pub night was recently hosted by students at the Out Back Shack in support of The Sunshine Foundation: Dreams for Kids, a national charity based in London. The organization helps physically disabled children and those who suffer from life-threatening illnesses.  It realizes the dreams of children aged 3 to 18 who may never have pause from the daily reality of medical challenges and other such circumstances. It has been able to fulfill over 6,400 wishes since its establishment in 1987.


Students raised $1,000 in support of the Sunshine Foundation. They were recently presented with a plaque in recognition of  the donation by Tracey Jones, the manager of chapters, volunteers and third party events for the Sunshine Foundation.
