To faunch the Arthritis
Society’s annual fundraising
campaign, Terrace mayor Jack
Talstra has officially declared
September as Arthritis Month in
Terrace, B.C., to encourage
people to learn more about this
painful and disabling illness and
to understand the importance of
funding arthritis research.
Throughout September, we will

be conducting an intensive:

campaign. We want people to
know that arthritis is Canada’s
number one chronic disease
affecting one in seven people.
Sometimes, it hurts to be number
one.

Arthritis Society volunteers will
canvass in the community during
the month of September, raising
the dollars so necessary for the
continuation of research and

public education programs.

But research is costly. We
appeal to the community to ‘help
us find the ultimate answer: the
cure and prevention of the
disease. Help us relieve human
suffering. When an Arthritis
Society volunteer asks for your
contribution, please give... to give
hope.
For further information, phone
635-7026 or 635-5024.

Sufety is a skill like any other
it has to be learned. To
