Sometimes bad things happen. Sometimes you need help, to turn things around.
“Turning Things Around”, that’s the slogan of Community Counselling & Resource Centre Peterborough (CCRC Ptbo).
Actor and personality, Linda Kash with Bob Campbell, past Chair, board of directors, of the CCRC.
I’ve lived in the Peterborough area my entire life and until a few weeks ago, I had never heard of CCRC Ptbo.
Funny thing is, CCRC is celebrating their 60th anniversary this year and they help 7000 households a year!
So why had I never heard of them?
Probably because I’m fortunate enough to never have needed them.
Like many resources in life, sometimes you don’t pay attention to the ones you don’t need and sometimes we take for granted the resources we have plenty or enough of.
CCRC is a United Way Agency and is funded a variety of ways including grants and of course fundraisers.
That’s where this gets really fun.
Every year CCRC hosts a super fun fundraiser called Juke Box Mania. When Hanah Howlett McFarlane phoned me and asked if I’d help spread the word about the event, I said you betcha!
Buckle up, we’re going on a “Drive By” (7:42) with two incredible women; a local morning radio show host and a former Hollywood actor who you may remember as the Philadelphia Cream Cheese Angel! We’re gonna put our and your music knowledge to the test!
