People in Humboldt and area are being asked to help the Community Gathering Place renovate the building.

Various functions including the Humboldt Farmers Market and the Community Soup Kitchen use the facility that is now looking at making over 135 thousand dollars worth of necessary renovations.

The Community Gathering Place is hoping to update various things such as the Entrance way and emergency exit in the upstairs, as well as updating lighting and electrical and make wheelchair accessible washrooms in the downstairs.

Cheques can be made payable to the Humboldt Community Gathering Place.

Donations can be made by dropping off cheques to 701 6th Ave. or mailing them to P.O. Box 1328 Humboldt.

Donors will receive a receipt, however donations can not be used for tax related write-offs because the Gathering Place is not under charity status.
