For the past three years, W.P. Griffin Inc. has been part of a very successful Dig In Do Good campaign. This year, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the presentation of the cheque to the IWK was unable to take place in person. For every 10 lb bag of Dig In Do Good potatoes sold in the Atlantic Canadian Provinces, 35 cents went directly to support the IWK Health Centre, Janeway Hospital and Chudumont Foundation. This year, the IWK received a cheque for $18,579 for this campaign that ran in February and March 2020. To-date in total for the past three years, the IWK has received $101,311 from this campaign for our children’s hospitals in Atlantic Canada.
