The Northern Women's Forum is in the process of collecting blankets and winter wear for those in need in the lead up to the eighth annual Chili Blanket rally against poverty will be held this Saturday in front of the Prince George courthouse.
To run from noon to 2 p.m. and organized by Northern Women's Forum, the event will feature hot chili, hot chocolate, "Campbell cake, cool music and sharp talk."
Residents are urged to join the NWF "in speaking up for British Columbians who are losing their jobs, services, and rights to financial assistance and specifically the continuing cuts to services and rights for the women of B.C."
