November Fundraising Goal

We are so incredibly lucky to have such a great community. Thanks to the generosity of the Region, we have continued to smash our goal for November. Thank you so much to Trios College, Capri Salon and Spa and the Guelph Community Foundation. Students at Trios held a bake sale for HopeSpring and Capri held a month-long fundraiser cumulating in the entire staff walking over 3 km from their salon to HopeSpring. We received a grant from the Guelph Community Foundation to support our Better Sleep program for the coming year.

If you haven't seen it on our social media, Cambridge Centre Honda is running a Test Drive for Charity for the month of November. Every test drive means $10 for HopeSpring. Print out and bring in this certificate and they'll double it to $20.
