John Hill Memorial Award Fund

Friends and Colleagues;

The Canadian Chestnut Council lost one of its foremost supporters and contributors this last year.  To memorialize John Hill’s contribution to the Canadian Chestnut Council and to his local community as well, I hope you will consider a donation to establish an Award Fund in John’s honour.  Please click below to learn more details about the John Hill Award Fund.

Sincerely

Ron Casier, Chair – Canadian Chestnut Council
