Niawehhko:wa
On Saturday, May 23, 2009 as part of fundraising efforts the Akwesasne Boys & Girls Club held a donation drive at the four corners in Hogansburg. With the assistance of the St. Regis Mohawk Tribal Police a section of the road was cordoned off to allow volunteers, employees and board members to ask for donations from passersby. The event was extremely successful having raised over $2,200 during a one and a half hour period.
The Akwesasne Boys & Girls Club would like to extend a big Niawenhko:wa to everyone who contributed. A special note of appreciation goes out to Officer Mathew Crowl and Officer Jordan Lauzon of the St. Regis Mohawk Police for ensuring our safety during the event. Every single donation however big or small is truly and graciously appreciated. Your donations will help us to continue to support families and children by providing a safe environment for their children to go every day after school.
