Fundraising Stars
We have teamed up with Fundraising Stars to bring delicious, high-quality
frozen foods to your home, while helping to raise money for HomeStart.
When you place an order online at www.fundraisingstars.ca, they'll donate
up to 20% of that purchase and hand deliver your order to your door in the
following days. An array of superb frozen meat products like tender Filet
Mignons, Chilean Babyback Ribs and Free Range Chicken Breasts as well as
some prepared options like Chicken Pot Pies and Cinnamon Rolls.
So buy some of your groceries online, have them delivered directly to your
home, and pass along up to 20% of the sale to your favourite cause!
HomeStart needs new wheels! Please help keep us on the road with a new truck.

With thanks to Harvey McKinnon Associates who gave 24 hours of free work to us during Goodstock
 First Annual Great Vancouver Housewarming Party
Together with our partner 1-800 Rid of It , junk removal company, we furnished 6 homes for families in need! Over June 5 & 6, these families received enough furniture to make their new places into a real home. And we received an overwhelming response to several stories in the media - thank you Vancouver! Please consider sponsoring the cost of furnishing a home - only $260!
