Easter Seals™ Saskatchewan has launched the 2021 Paper Egg Campaign to support individuals experiencing disability in Saskatchewan.
The campaign is an annual fundraising initiative by Easter SealsTM Canada, where Canadians are invited to donate to their local Easter SealsTM charity while at the cashier/checkout register. Here in Yorkton the ‘eggs’ are available at the Yorkton Branch of SaskAbilities and Joe Beeverz.
Donations collected through the Paper Egg Campaign in Saskatchewan will remain in the province and go towards funding programs and services that aim to improve the quality of life of children, youth and adults who are experiencing disability – this includes Camp Easter Seal, Summer Fun and Adaptive Technology Services.
In 2021, SaskAbilities and Camp Easter Seal have also announced Camp Connected, an online, virtual program open to all Saskatchewan residents experiencing disability.
“Although we will miss visiting little Manitou and Watrous in person this year, during the months of June, July and August we will bring the best of camp to you via virtual activities, challenges, campfires, videos and much more. Interactive and engaging programming will run from June 14 – August 19, 2021,” stated a release.
“Our campers depend on us to create opportunities for them to connect in meaningful ways with others to enhance their independence and to grow relationships that last a lifetime. We are looking forward to staying connected with everyone and we cannot do this without your generous support. Your donation helps us to deliver this program and to keep Camp Easter Seal maintained for our return in 2022.”
If you would like to learn more about our virtual program or know someone that would like to register, Registration for Camp Connected opens April 7. Visit SaskAbilities.ca/camp for more information. Everyone is welcome to participate in this free programming thanks to the ongoing support of funders, donors and community partners.
SaskAbilities serves over 60,000 clients each year and is the proud operator of Easter SealsTM Saskatchewan.
This year’s Paper Egg Campaign runs from April 1st to April 30th, 2021.
