Several businesses and organizations across the Kenora-Rainy River district held coffee breaks Thursday in support of the Alzheimer Society.
The district's executive director Lynn Moffatt says it's a fun event that helps raise needed funds for the Society.
"Basically its a very fun event for organization to get out their to meet new people," says Moffatt. "It's a great networking opportunity and it's for a great cause. All of the money raised goes towards raising new services and supports.
Moffatt says they were hoping to raise at least five-thousand during the one-day event.
