Over 1,300 students across British Columbia submitted posters and Hope finished in the top 50. Hope received her framed poster, a Burn Fund Stuffy, and a $50 cheque for her school. Her poster will also appear on the Burn Fund website for one year (www.burnfund.org). Cranbrook Fire Fighters have also donated a pizza party from Canadian 2 for 1 Pizza to Hope for her to share with her classmates.

Congratulations to Hope, it is quite the achievement and we thank Hope and all of the other students for partaking in the poster contest.
