**TFEC NEWS RELEASE**

The Timmins Festival & Event’s Committee (TFEC) are proud to announce two local non profits will be seeing a benefit from our upcoming Festival in July. Project Love as well as The Timmins Family Counselling Centre will be receiving donations through TFEC’s child admission fee, in which kids under ten years of age are free to attend with a cash donation to a local non profit. 

Project Love will be set up on July 27th and The Timmins Family Counselling Centre will be set up on July 28th. The total donations for the weekend will be split between the two, however each
non profit will be set up on their night to educate about some of the amazing work they do in the community.

About Project Love:
The mission of Project Love is to provide nourishment in the form of Sunday and Monday night suppers to people who are struggling to keep a roof over their heads. Children who come to supper are offered a school lunch for the following day. The environment in which these meals are served is characterized by unconditional love and encouragement, practical assistance and referrals to community supports. There is always the opportunity for skill
building volunteer opportunities and new friendships.

About The Timmins Family Counselling Centre:
