Aspin seniors fundingTwo area projects for seniors are benefiting from federal funding.

Today (Friday), MP Jay Aspin announced the Club Les Bon Amis will receive $24,700 to renovate their kitchen at Les Compagnons.

As well, the Canadian Red Cross Society will get almost $15,000 to go towards improving their seniors programming.

Aspin says it’s important the federal government continues to invest in programs for the seniors demographic because it helps make their golden years golden.

The total funding amounts to $39,450.
