Making Kenora Home Launches Poverty Challenge

The Making Kenora Home Commitee has selected 12 local Kenora residents and given them a challenge.


They are going to be given 35 dollars to live on for 5 days.

Chair of the Communications commitee Dan Jorgensen says they want people to know what it's like to live on Social Asisstance.

Jorgensen says that they are also going to be given a daily challenge card which could be anything from buying toothpaste to getting ready for a job interview.

The challenge begins tomorrow and wraps up on February 16th.
