FUNDRAISING
with support from businesses & individuals
Our signature fundraising event is the ‘SNOWFLAKE GALA‘, held the first Thursday in November each year. This takes months of planning, and is built on community and individual support and donations. It has changed throughout the years, with each year presenting something new. Great food, great company, great evening – all for a good cause – to support Soroptimist and the programs we run throughout the year. Read more about this one-of-a-kind evening HERE.
Our members have a lot of fun either baking, or gathering items for our Annual YARD & BAKE SALE. This has typically been held late Spring in Lindsay. More details about it HERE.
We have started an on-line AUCTION SALE. Watch for details on our Facebook Group page here. New items each week. Highest bidder at cut-off time gets to support Soroptimist in our programs. This will run a few weeks at a time.
COMING in the Spring 2021 (hopefully!) – We will be holding a One-of-a-Kind FASHION SHOW, featuring Vintage Wedding Gowns of the 1900’s. Watch for details on our Facebook page, and enjoy an afternoon of nostalgia as we showcase gowns that your mother or grandmother might have worn.
A FEW OF OUR FUNDRAISING ITEMS:
• We purchased greeting cards that were made by an Ontario woman who spends half the year in Guatemala. The money that she raises is given to a women’s co-operative in that country, so they in turn can help support their families. We in turn, sell these beautiful cards to help support our programs.
