Mother’s Day Fruit Basket Fundraiser

The deadline to order has now passed. Thank you to everyone who has purchased a basket!

Our 2^nd annual Mother’s Day Fruit Basket fundraiser is back! Proceeds will support REACH programs and services.

New this year, you will be able to buy a basket for a loved one, OR a mother in our community! This year, we are selling baskets for mothers using the services and supports at the Regina Transition House, YWCA and Sofia House. This act of kindness will help these mothers get the recognition they deserve – while enjoying a healthy basket of fruit!

Fruit baskets come in two sizes: $25 small (for individuals) and $45 large (for families).

Orders can be made for pick-up or free delivery on Saturday May 12, 2018. Order deadline was May 9, 2018.
