​On September 29, 2024, we were thrilled to donate the sum of $50,000 to our Health Centre.  These funds will help our Health Centre provide services not covered by grants.  

At the store on July 3, 5 and 6 from 10:00 - 3:00 pm.   Excellent stock, great prices.  

There are so many to thank:

• Thanks to everyone who came to our event on May 5, 2024
• Thanks to all those `who volunteered to make it a success, especially Linda P.
• Thanks to all the fabulous models, our hairdresser Carmen and our makeup artist Gay
• Thanks to the Legion for providing the space and a fabulous lunch - their volunteers rock!

​We made just over $3,300 from this event, plus had a great day of fun and surprises.  

On March 26, 2024 our Auxiliary made a substantial donation of $30,000 to our Health Centre, bringing our total contributions to $79,000 for this fiscal year ending March 31, 2024.  

We are also thrilled to share that we achieved our financial goal with a gross income exceeding $100,000.  We could not have done that without our incredible volunteers. 

​ 

Our 1st Fashion Exchange Wine & Cheese was a huge success.  Forty four women enjoyed a lively social afternoon with tasty refreshments.  They had great fun choosing from a fine selection of quality clothes, shoes, jewellery and accessories. 

We raised $1004.06 for the Bargain Barn and look forward to making it an annual event.
​
Sincere thanks to our enthusiastic volunteers and to everyone who attended.
