Making a Difference 2
Welcome to Making a Difference 2 !! We are back this year with our online auction and matching donation campaign. Covid is still keeping us from meeting together physically but we can still Make a Difference in the lives of the children at Casa Connor! We can’t thank you enough for keeping the legacy of Connor Vanderveen alive 🧡🧡.
Covid is still impacting the world and, once again, we are anticipating losing most of our major fundraisers, in addition to the cancellation of our Calgary Fiesta. We would love to have our communities continue to play a role in the lives of our Pasitos de Luz families. The 130 Pasitos children who attend at Casa Connor need us more than ever before.
Last year our first Making a Difference event was a huge success because of the generosity of so many of you! This year we are back with some amazing auction items and a more significant matching donation campaign!

This is a great opportunity to help Pasitos de Luz at Casa Connor and you can get some great items for yourself. It is also a perfect opportunity for some special Christmas gifts! 🎁
This year in addition to operational funds, Pasitos de Luz needs help with a specialized movement therapy bike that is needed for the children who cannot use a regular exercise bike in their therapy. A movement therapy bike is specially designed for kids with limited or no movement in their arms and/or legs, since it has a built-in electric motor that can do some or all of the physical exertion. It is designed to get muscles moving and keep them moving, both in the legs and the arms.
Let’s help Pasitos get the movement therapy bike, some operating funds and, at the same time, you can pick up some great auction items just in time for Christmas!
Our goal is to raise $15,000 on the auction!
