Edmonton Tiny Light Fundraiser November 2012
/On November 27, 2012 we hosted our 2nd annual Edmonton fundraiser. This year it took place at O2 Joe's Tap House and Grill. The location was great and the food was even better.

We had so many items that we had to have sections. We had supportive bidders and there was definitely some competitive bidding. We can not thank everyone enough for coming out and attending this event. Our families, friends, photographer, and all the regulars at Joe's, you all have made this event a huge success. We were very close to meeting our goal this year. All the money goes directly to the Foundation. We have already put the funds to good use by upgrading our shipping packaging for prints, cleared our account with our charity lawyer, partial payment to our trademark lawyer. And we were able to supply our offices with ink, stamps, labels etc. We have enough money put away to help get us through a portion of this year, with the simple costs it takes to run an organization of our size.
All images were taken by our amazing photographer volunteer Christy Wells from Christy Wells Photography. Thank you so much Christy for coming out and attending this event and for taking some beautiful behind the scenes photos.
