SMA Fundraiser

Thank you to everyone who helped make the 3rd annual Georgia's Journey of Hope a success! That includes all the sponsors, volunteers, donors -- and of course everyone who attended and enjoyed the party.  The 2011 event has so far raised over $10,300! And donations are still coming in (click here if you would like to donate online).

That brings the 3-year total to over $35,000!

All event proceeds are donated to FSMAC (Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Canada).




Georgia's Journey of Hope is an afternoon of fun for the whole family! Snacks and fountain drinks are provided, as is children's entertainment including face painting, balloon animals, and giant bouncy castles (special thanks to Funquest)! For the adults there is a silent prize auction (social-style) and baked goods for sale.

The event is held every year in memory of Georgia Lily Lucas, near her birthday (October 6th). Georgia died of Spinal Muscular atrophy at the age of six months. Click here to learn more about SMA and Georgia's story.

What if we can't attend?

For anyone who lives too far away, or just can't make it on October 2nd, you can still show your support for Georgia's Journey of Hope by donating online (just click here). Tax receipts are issued for all online donations. Payment is handled via CanadaHelps.org.

Maybe we'll see you next year!


That was the best party I've ever been to!
