The Kin Club of Dauphin announced Thursday that they are donating $6,674.72 to the Dauphin & District Community Foundation (DDCF).

President Nicole Gulenchin says that money came from the last draw held by the former Kinette Club.

"After the Kinette Club and the Kinsmen Club merged into the Kin Club, it was around the same time that Iona had passed away... We decided that in her memory, we would donate the leftover funds that the Kinette Club had raised at the last wine draw to the fund that was already created for her husband, who was also a Kinsmen," she adds.

Gulenchin went on to say that they renamed the fund to "The Jim & Iona Tarrant Memorial Fund" and donated the proceeds there to increase it, adding that all of the fund's proceeds go towards helping youth in the community.
