The Nanaimo area’s only emergency youth shelter received funds from the city’s share of provincial gaming revenue, which allowed them to add additional support for troubled teens seeking help. An $80,000 contribution of funds generated at the local casino has ensured the facility can open its doors to twice as many at-risk youth.
