W.E. Care For Kids got a huge boost in funding.

This year’s campaign raised $443, 070 thanks to several organizations and individuals from the Windsor-Essex community.

CTV anchor Jim Crichton co-hosted Tuesday’s event announcing the total.

Many youth held lemonade stands and bake sale to raise money.

Do Good Diva's made the largest contribution of $100,000.

The money will go towards three pediatric programs, the John McGivney Children’s Centre, Therapeutic Riding Association and Ronald McDonald house.
