Butte Exchange Club recognized by Shriners
The Shriners Bagdad Temple has established a Transportation Fund to help families with the costs of transporting children to and from the Spokane Shriner’s hospital. High gasoline prices, lodging and meal costs all add up quickly for families that have a child treated at a Shriners Hospital for Children. The cost of the medical care is absolutely free! However, families can face significant costs for travel. Bagdad looks at the costs for these families on a case-by-case basis and distributes the money from the Transportation Fund as available. Recently the Butte Exchange Club was awarded a Century Club certificate by the Shriners for their donation to the Transportation Fund generated at the 2015 Field of Honor.
