The Castlegar Firefighters Association recently donated $160 to the Castlegar Hospice Society. While the donation might seem small, fire chief Sam Lattanzio said the department gives money to four main charities every year — Muscular Dystrophy, Movember, the annual Toy Drive and Castlegar Hospice. “We found we had a small surplus left in our fund, so we decided to turn it over to one of the organizations we sponsor,” said Lattanzio.
