It’s a costly job, estimated at $10-thousand dollars, but with a large donation from Vantage West Reality today, the Gospel Mission is two thirds of the way to its fundraising goal.
Vantage West, donating money from home sales for the month of June, cutting a cheque for $3,300. The company plans to add more to that total at the end of the month.
