Summary

The December 1975 holiday issue says that LaFreniere’s Store and Beachcomber Tavern were making donations to the Beaver Island Medical Center Building Fund instead of sending Christmas cards.

Evidence and limits

These are announced charitable intentions, not proof of received funds. The notices supply no amount, receipt, transaction date, donor ledger, or later use of either donation. The store and tavern names remain qualified by their separate source records.
