A local committee that offers house tours during the Christmas season has made a donation to the Chatham-Kent Hospice.

Members of the IODE Christmas House Tours committee recently presented the Chatham-Kent Hospice Foundation with a cheque for $6,000.

Chatham-Kent Hospice Foundation Executive Director Jodi Maroney says she is very grateful for the donation.

“We are so appreciative to the IODE for their support as well as the support from the participating florists, the featured homeowners and those who attend the tour," says Maroney. "This gift will be used towards our ongoing operational expenses not covered by government funding."

The group is already planning for next year’s tour, which will take place on November 17 and 18, 2018.

For more information about the tours, visit the IODE Facebook page.
