The call went out for volunteers and they answered, this year more than ever before.
Local professional designers and writers came out to lend their skills and support 6 non-profits further their causes. Some were volunteer-returnees and many more were new faces, all willing to help make the day a success.
Thank you all for what you did, including the companies that provided their employees time on a work day to support the community. Know that your contributions in turn help many more Saskatoon and area residents who are in need.
Congratulations on making it great! See below for samples of the fantastic work completed.
We also thank our most wonderful partners, Affinity Credit Union and the United Way of Saskatoon and Area for making this possible.
