15th Annual Radiothon; A Fundraiser for Children's Cottage 

Mark Your Calendar - Dec 6th 

On December 6th, staff and friends of the Children's Cottage Society will once again be working together on our biggest annual day of fundraising. On location with XL102 at Bankers Hall from 6 am until 6 pm, we will be taking donations on the phones, online and in person.

Come down and see the action - the buzz of the event is well worth the jaunt downtown as is the on-location prize draw for a 35 lb chocolate Santa courtesy of Chocolaterie Bernard Callebaut . Radiothon plays a significant role in helping us reach $1 million dollar annual fundraising target.  Participate and get in on the fun. 

Why not take on a personal challenge this Radiothon?  Ask your friends, family or co-workers to match your gift!  Each of us has a role to play in making this day a success.  We hope we can count on you! 

Spooktacular Halloween Events 


So many great people, groups
Photo taken at the Heartland Halloween Hootenany which raised over $7600 for the Cottage.
and organizations do amazing work  
for us every week.  A few groups decided to make their Halloween event into a Children's Cottage fundraiser this past month.  Thanks to F8 Photography for their Halloween photo session and to the Heartland crew, led by Shaun, who had a "Hootenany" in honour of children and families we serve.

Let us know if you want to organize a fundraising opportunity for your friends, family or workplace.
