Akwesasne Holiday Helpers Annual Fundraising Event is December 9th

The fundraiser will be held at the Hogansburg-Akwesasne Volunteer Fire Department Station #1. The goal this year is $79,000, which will ensure over 1,150 families receive a holiday basket this year.

We still need your assistance…we are still in desperate need of monetary donations, toys and gifts for seniors.

There will be many different opportunities for you to contribute to this worthy cause on December 9th:

• Breakfast Sale – Dine in at the station or deliveries will be available for orders of three or more starting at 8am

• Lunch Sale – Lasagna dinner with all the fixings starting at 11:30am till all is sold – dine in or deliveries available for order of three or more

• Raffle Tickets, Mohawk Auction, Jail-n-Bail Fundraiser – the Akwesasne Holiday Helpers are still looking for volunteers for this event.

We would like to call upon our local artists to donate something for the Mohawk Auction for the December 9th fundraiser. If you are able to support, please contact us at 315-705-8624.
