Virtual fundraiser underway for Valour Place
Supporters from across Canada are taking on fun challenges and fundraising to support Valour Place – a temporary home away from home for military, veterans, RCMP, families of the fallen, and first responders while in Edmonton for medical treatment.
Brave men and women have given so much to protect our country and communities and Valour Place is here to help in their time of need. Receiving medical treatment can be an incredibly stressful time, Valour Place is a place of comfort and safety for these heroes. It is only with the generosity of our supporters that we can provide accommodations at no cost to the guests.
Since 2012, Valour Place has provided over 20,000 nights of accommodation a savings of over $2 million for military and first responders dealing with a medical situation.
“This is the only major fundraiser for Valour Place and last year alone we helped over 900 families with accommodations while they were dealing with a medical situation. We hope you will help us reach our goal of raising $35,000! This week has been a great start with over $10,000 raised,” says Connie Erker, Vice President of the Valour Place board.
