CORNWALL, Ontario – The Township of South Glengarry took part in Toques Tuesday on Tuesday, Feb. 6, 2018.

“Toque Tuesday is a partnership between Habitat for Humanity ReStore-Cornwall & The Counties and Raising the Roof to raise awareness of homelessness and housing issues,” the Township explained in a post on their Facebook page.

Staff and volunteers from Habitat for Humanity Cornwall were selling toques, mittens and ball caps at the ReStore in Cornwall. Fifty percent of all proceeds raised will stay in the community to build homes.

The toques were on-sale at the ReStore, the Boston Pizza in Cornwall and BMR Winchester and online at www.raisingtheroof.org.

This year marked the 21st annual Toque Tuesday.
