Last week a house fire in Moose Jaw left a family without a home, causing $85,000 in damage.

Luckily, Moose Jaws Elks Lodge #7 pitched in with a donation to help.

Harold Claffey is the Publicity Director.

"We have a policy where we will donate immediately from our lodge funds which we raise through fundraisers, for any family who has lost their home temporarily or permanently. So that's what we did."

Claffey added that the money donated usually goes towards essential things the family needs immediately.
