Stepping out for kids

Organizers of a ladies-night fundraiser in South Surrey hope to raise $2,000 for B.C. Children's Hospital Foundation.

A South Surrey children’s centre is gearing up to host its second ladies-night shopping fundraiser on Dec. 1.

The 2nd Annual Creative Kids Ladies Night Vendor Fair is to take place from 7-10 p.m. Saturday at 15350 34 Ave.

The evening is to feature vendors, door prizes and appetizers.

Organizers hope to raise at least $2,000. All proceeds will benefit the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation.

Last year’s event – dubbed Mom’s Night Out – raised about $11,000.

It was organized in honour of White Rock tot, Gabrielle Ross, to help her and her family cope with the challenges of I-cell disease, the rare and incurable genetic disorder she was born with.

Tickets to this year’s event are $5. For more information, email Debbie Back at rosemary@creativekidspreschool.ca
