Thrifty Foods' month-long Help Out One Buck at a Time campaign raised $84,742 for hospital foundations.
Between Feb. 15 and March 13, one dollar from the purchase of every four-pound bag of Buck Brand navel oranges at the grocery chain went to support 13 hospital foundations on Vancouver Island and the Lower Mainland.
Included in the total was a $20,000 donation from Buck Brand Citrus owner Lisle Babcock.
