SASKATOON – A local business has come through and now Saskatoon’s largest immigration group has a place to store piles of donated items. The Saskatoon Open Door Society had appealed for the public’s help last week when it was inundated with items for Syrian refugees coming to Canada.

Donations had to be put on hold.
