Thank Yous

What a way to end a week! Huge thank you to CUPE 556 Courtenay Division for the gracious donation of $500.00! Not only did they give us a HUGE chunk, but they also donated to the Linc Youth Centre, Comox Valley Transition Society, and Children’s Health Foundation! Big smiles to Lana McKenzie on behalf of the Courtenay Municipal Workers for stopping by with the cheque and snagging a photo! We appreciate how hard you all work for your local community!

WOW… WOW… WOW… We are truly speechless. HUGE thank you to the Wiseman family and this incredible community that spooked together this Halloween for a fantastic Haunted Hall of Horrors. Not only did they double last year’s donation, they almost TRIPLED it! Their goal has always been to raise enough to cover one month’s rent of one of our Vancouver apartments at $1285 a month… They were SO proud to say they raised enough to cover 2 months AND THEN SOME this year! Donald, Catherine, and Juliet wanted to also thank YOU all for the fantastic turnout and community support they witnessed this weekend.

Is there anything better than ice cold, homemade lemonade on a hot day? I’m not sure… But one incredibly sweet thing is after 10 years, this family chose to give back through their daughters birthday lemonade stand! Truly heartwarming… your donation makes a difference, one cup at a time!

We thank you, Rotary Club of Strathcona Sunrise, for your recent donation to YANA.  Your generous gift will help us to fund local families who need to travel for the medical treatment of a child or pregnant mother.


HUGE thank you’s to Doug Kines for his recent donation in lieu of the Hillbilly Masters Golf Tournament! We appreciate you keeping us in your minds!

A very grateful thank you to the former Vanisle Airfield Society for their recent donation. We appreciate the thoughtfulness that went into this donation during the closing of their business. YANA, and the families we support say thank you!

We want to give a HUGE thank you to Pilon Tools for including us in their 50th anniversary plans! Not only did they raise a great amount of money for the YANA families, but they had a successful BBQ and event! We wish you nothing but the best for the next 50 years!

A huge crafty thank you to our friends over at Central Builders in Courtenay for their recent donation! I don’t know if there is a better pairing than a BBQ for a good cause! We appreciate everything you do for our community!

Major thanks are given to the Provincial Employees Community Services LTD for their recent donation. Without help from folks like you, we would not be able to do what we do here at YANA. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

We want to give HUGE thanks to the Comox Valley Potters Club for donating the proceeds from their annual YANA pottery bowl fundraiser. What a spinning success it was! We couldn’t do what we do without caring hearts like yours!
