The second location was donated storefront space from Lansdowne Place offered to Lisa Couture, Couture Candy PTBO owner. The space was given to aid in her $10,000 fundraiser goal in support of Peterborough Regional Health Center Foundation for cancer care.

Couture says her business has had non-stop action in preparation for the Lansdowne storefront.

"We have to double our ordering,” she explained. “Our vendors are fantastic, most of them know what's happening so they're super-supportive and it's all hands on deck making sure that the time we're at the mall for the fundraiser is a huge success."

All select products sold at the store see $1 of each product towards the foundations. Several charity candy bags feature freeze-dried brand candy and assorted mixes.

During the store’s first six weeks of its 15-week campaign, $5,000 was raised with some assistance from local businesses. Reclaimed Garden Co. donated $255 while Jolly Painters within 10 minutes of the fundraiser update donated funds to make it exactly $5,000.

Donations can also be made at the store or online.

The Lansdowne location will have the same operating hours as the mall and will run until the end of the year.
