Holiday Card Campaign - 2009

The 2009 Holiday Card Campaign raised $13,800! Causeway’s newest social enterprise, Cycle Salvation, will be the beneficiary. Cycle Salvation provides training to Causeway clients in bicycle mechanics by rebuilding used and discarded bicycles, which are then sold to the public.

The success of the Campaign can be traced to the organizations and individuals who purchased our cards and to the generous support of all our sponsors, donors, volunteers and friends. We thank Geof H. Burbidge and John Vant Erve who donated the wonderful photographic images used on the cards. We gratefully acknowledge the dedication of the volunteer Campaign Committee chaired by Patti Anderson and thank the network of Ottawa-area retail outlets who sold our cards. We especially appreciate the generosity of our sponsors and donors.
