Lake of the Woods Foundation

The Kenora and Lake of the Woods Regional Foundation has asked city council for a sizable donation.

The foundation made a special deputatation to council on Friday for a one time grant of 3.5 million dollars.

Andrew Paterson is one of the directors of the foundation and says the money would help a lot of groups in the area.

Currently, the foundation has just over two million dollars in assets.

Council says it will consider the request, but hasn't given time line for a response back to the foundation.
