A little bit about the Red Hibiscus Foundation
Created by Zoë Lewis to provide a lasting legacy for the community. In it’s first year this foundation funded the Aldergrove Neighbourhood Services Society’s at-risk youth program. Zoë was very excited about this project and her generosity is sure to make a significant impact in helping troubled youth.
