“Reach for the Sky”, our International Women’s Day fundraiser, was a huge success. This year our annual Dim Sum at the Continental Seafood Restaurant was held on March 4, 2017, in Richmond, British Columbia.
Thank you so much to everyone who came and made it such a warm, fun-loving event. Heartfelt thanks to Councillor Carol Day who was the MC that day, Sibel Thrasher and Doug Louie for the outstanding entertainment, and to Senator Mobina Jaffer for delivering the keynote speech!
Special thanks to the Richmond Firefighter’s IAFF Local 1286, Macdonald Realty Westmar, and Gord Pipkey of REAL Mortgage Services who presented cheques that day.
And many thanks to the businesses and individuals who gave generously to the silent and live auctions, and to the door prizes.
Together we are improving the lives of women in Richmond.
