16th Annual Create A Smile Fundraiser Raises over $22,000!

Posted on: October 10th, 2019 by Community Living St. Marys

Create A Smile Foundation in partnership with Community Living St. Marys and Area raise over $22,000!!

It’s often said that the shortest distance between two people is a smile! Many smiles and stories were shared on Sunday September 22nd when over one hundred people participated in the 16th annual ‘Create A Smile’ 5km walk/run.

This fundraising event was a huge success with over $22,000 raised! The generosity of our community, families, friends and sponsors is overwhelming!

The money raised will pay for things that enhance the lives of people with disabilities, their families and the communities they live in. This includes essential items not covered by government funding, some mobility and communication devices, summer supports for a number of young people, housing, People First and accessibility equipment needed in our community.

Our sincere gratitude is extended to all people that made this walk a success.

“Build Community. Start with a Smile!”
