It gives them the opportunity to create and enjoy beautiful music regardless of their ability or skill level.

 

Your purchase will support many wonderful music initiatives across Providence’s network of hospitals and residences, including access to musical instruments and musical programming.

A humble hallmark of the compassionate care offered to patients and residents throughout Providence.

Beneficiary Spotlight!

 

Langley Rotary 50/50 MEGA Draw is a strong supporter of Starfish Pack contributing over $140,000 and many volunteer hours over the past 6 years!

Many students across the province rely on school breakfast and lunch programs to fill their tummies on school days. When it comes to the weekend, they don’t have the food they need. Starfish Pack was designed to help change that. Starfish provides backpacks with 2 breakfasts, 2 lunches, 2 dinners, and snacks to hungry students each weekend of the school year.

Teachers report improvements in children’s reading skills, math skills, ability to focus and to do partner work. Starfish has now expanded to over 20 cities and is helping make sure children across BC don’t have to worry about weekend hunger.

Each week, volunteers fill backpacks and deliver them to local schools for the students to take home on the weekend. The students return the empty backpacks to the school, and our volunteers pick them up to be refilled for the following weekend.

The draw will be held on August 30, 2023 at noon.
