Hello everyone,

I am involved in a fund-raising project for Global Gathering Place, local non-profit that has been providing vital services to refugees and immigrants in Saskatoon since 1998.

For the last three years I have helped organize and event called Ride for Refuge, an in-person bike ride or walk, held nationwide to raise money for local charities that support people seeking hope, safety, and freedom. The event will be held on October 4 at 3 pm in downtown Saskatoon at the River Landing Ampitheatre.

Our goal is to raise $30,000 that will be used to quickly respond to our clients' urgent needs as they arise. From food and housing insecurity to family breakdowns, many of our clients face crises that prevent them from being able to move forward in their settlement journey. The funds we raise during Ride for Refuge enable us to respond to client needs in the moment, when the need is greatest.

Any donation you could make would be greatly appreciated. 

As well, please feel free to come in person to the event. We would love to see you there.

Thank you for your time and enjoy the rest of your summer.

Jeff
