The fifth and final Eritrean refugee family has arrived in Manitowaning. They got in on Tuesday night, and they come from a country of around 4.5 million on the Horn of Africa. The Manitoulin Refugee is fundraising for the family, and is at about 70 per cent of their goal. They are hoping to support all of the families for one year. Donations are still being accepted, with 100 per cent of the funds going to the families.
Donations can be made directly at any island Bank of Montreal or by mail to:
