Kinderhaven Foundation helps BHT
SANDPOINT — Bonner Homeless Transitions' expenses for the next year are covered — thanks to a donation by the Kinderhaven Foundation.
The foundation, which was formed when the former youth group home was forced to shut down due to a change in federal regulations, donated $130,000 raised during its annual Festival of Trees to the organization.
