The PEI Liquor Control Commission (PEILCC) recently presented donations to several charitable organizations as part of its annual Gift of Giving Campaign.

The Gift of Giving Campaign is an annual event that donates a portion of gift card sales from PEILCC locations across the Island during the month of December to community organizations. This past holiday season, the campaign raised over $17,100 for charities across PEI including Blooming House, Bedford MacDonald House, MADD Canada, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Canadian Mental Health Association, and several food banks across the Island.

“Each and every day our Island charities work tirelessly to support clients across PEI, and we are extremely pleased to contribute and assist through the Gift of Giving Campaign”, said Minister of Finance Mark McLane. “These organizations play such an important role across our province, especially through difficult times, and I want to thank everyone who participated and helped facilitate this funding that will directly support Islanders.”

PEILCC is committed to the communities it serves, and this campaign gives back to organizations that provide important support and assistance to Islanders.
