On our way

Big thanks to everyone who attended the Old Fashioned Talent Show or the Dance Saturday night.  We had a great time and made over $2300. Keep up the great work, everyone!

We're still selling tickets on the Mother's Day basket and the handmade quilt featuring the kids' artwork.  Keep an eye out for us at the Stephenville Mall on Saturday or contact a committee member to get tickets.  If you're reading this from away, you can send in a donation through PayPal and specify in a message that you would like to buy tickets.

Draw dates are May 13th for the Mother's Day basket and June 9th for the quilt.

Fundraising benches | Bancs à vendre

Our quotes are in and the committee is now aiming to raise 50000$ to build the playground that the kids want with all the bells and whistles. 6000$ of that amount will need to be raised from within the community. Keep an ear out for fundraising activities and for the committee members knocking on your door!

As part of this effort, we are offering the opportunity to name park benches. A gift of 250$ (bench) or 500$ (bench with table)gets your name(or the name of a loved one) permanently inscribed in the bench. Families are welcome to pool their so they can get in on being part of the project.

Donations are tax-deductible and we are also accepting donations in memory of a loved one.

***

Après avoir appris le coût de notre terrain de jeu idéal, nous avons déterminé qu'il faudra lever 50 000$ pour réaliser ce but. Ainsi, nous allons de l'avant avec nos efforts de levées de fonds.

Une belle initiative est de vendre les bancs à être installés dans le parc. Un don de 250$ (un banc) ou de 500$ (un banc avec une table) vous assure une inscription permanente de votre nom dans le parc. Quel honneur! Nous invotons les familles à unir leurs ressources pour faire un achat collectif.

Nous émettons des reçus à fin d'impots et nous acceptons des dons in memoriam.
