A sea of red marched through the uptown today as Irving Oil's Fuel The Care Program marked a milestone.
Over the past eight years, the company has assisted 25,000 families in Atlantic Canada and New England by helping with some of their fuel costs to and from hospitals.
Amanda Bennet is one of those and says doctors found a tumor inside her son Chece's chest and had to be rushed to the I.W.K. in Halifax.
Chece is now 100% cancer free and Bennet says when you factor in the price of food and a place to stay when your away from home, to have the money for gas is phenomenal.
