Today Will "Shine" With Students

Rain or shine the streets of Saint John will be filled with new university students raising funds for cystic fibrosis.

But this years Shinerama fundraiser will be a bit different says this years Shinerama president Stephan Warner. He says often once people receive the iconic blue and orange sticker they stop donating, so they're going to have different themed stations around the city to keep the money coming.

Some of those stations will include a BBQ, henna tattoos, walking tours of the city and even a loyalist costume photo op. Warner says UNBSJ usually raises $5,000 but this year they're aiming for $10,000.

The fundraiser runs from 9:30am until 4 o'clock today. You can also donate by texting "shine" to 45678 to donate five dollars.
