Habitat for Humanity & The Brick Asking You To Cast Your Vote

October 25, 2012/ PTBOCANADA

The Brick has teamed up with Habitat for Humanity once again this year, and will be donating a second home to a community in Canada. Last year a family in Stratford was awarded a home and this year we are hoping that Peterborough will be chosen as the next community awarded this opportunity. Cast your votes here in hopes that a deserving family in our area will have the opportunitiy for a new home to call their very own.

Penny on the Roof In Support Of Breast Cancer Treatment at PRHC

May 19, 2012/ PTBOCANADA

We dropped by Sears to give our support to Penny Parent who is on the roof to support Breast Cancer Treatment at Peterborough Regional Health Centre. Penny's stay on the roof is all part of a fundraiser called Peterborough Cares founded by Camille Parent. The idea behind this was to have fundraisers going on throughout the city on one simultaneous weekend. Paul Rellinger has been on the roof of The Brick this weekend in support of Habitat For Humanity, as well as events taking place at Morello's Independent for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Canada, and Wal-Mart in support of the Canadian Red Cross.
