Keeping Spirits Bright Virtual Run

Rate This Article

On December 1st 2020 YWCA Brandon will be kicking off our 5th annual Fusion Credit Union Keeping Spirits Bright Campaign to raise money and awareness for homelessness and domestic violence during the holiday season. Every year since 2016, a tree is placed in the front yard of Meredith Place with purple lights, and the more money we raise during the campaign the more lights get turned on. Addictions, homelessness and domestic violence are a daily struggle for many in our community, and the holiday season can be even harder on them.

The Fusion Credit Union Keeping Spirits Bright Campaign will kick off with a cheque presentation and virtual tree lighting ceremony live on our event Facebook page December 1st 7pm at Meredith Place. This will kick off Giving Tuesday and our new for 2020 – month long walk/run challenge ending December 31st. Each registered walker/runner will keep track of the number of KM’s walked and the person with the most KM’s walked will win top prize. Registration for the challenge is $25. Also a number of schools in Westman will be competing to win $500! We have partnered with a number of schools in Westman with a Phys-Ed/fundraising challenge. The school to walk/run the most KM’s December 18th will win $500 cash for their school, plus any money they raise in fundraising we will give back 20%
