The Edgar J. Paradis Cancer Fund is so grateful for the Long Lake Ice Fishing Derby and its amazing fisherman over the years. Thank you!
Drum Roll Please!! The long awaited announcement and why we hold this event every year. Today members of the Derby Committee presented our annual contribution to the Edgar J. Paradis Cancer Fund!! We are pleased to announce that today’s contribution is the second highest single amount we have donated to the fund in one year. $15,000!! This brings our total fundraising for the fund to over $165,000 since inception and in addition we have donated another $60,000 to NMMC for their capital campaign in support of oncology patients. That brings the total support to $225,000 raised by all of you to support cancer patients in the St John Valley! We thank each and everyone of you that donate money, register to compete, purchase raffle tickets and buy clothing. Every dollar raised is to help our friends and neighbors and we couldn’t do this without you.
