5th Annual Fundraiser: Breaking Records
What a year it has been, and continues to be! It’s hard to believe that we are 5 years into this special organization, and have been able to grow and help more children each year. This year, being the first year that we are officially a Registered Charity in Canada we have aimed high. We have raised the most money so far, that we have ever raised and have already been able to help almost 300 children!
It’s been another monumental year, as we have also partnered with the most organizations ever. We’ve partnered with Empowerment Squared, LARCH After School Program, Why Not Youth Centre and the YWCA Hamilton. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook to learn more about the work we’re continuing to do this year!
