Davidson Playschool held its biggest fundraiser of the year on Nov. 16 with its annual Variety Fair. Vendors and guests flocked to the Town Hall to ignite the Christmas season of decorating and gift buying.
The Variety Fair raises money to keep the playschool operational. The non-profit organization gets its funding from fundraising, donations and registration fees all help their playschool continue to run. There are 19 children enrolled in the three- and four-year-old class, which is held in the basement at the United Church.
The group raised money through vendor table rentals and lunch sales. Parents donated their time to work in the kitchen and at the door. Additionally, parents donated food and drink items to support their children’s early education.
“The Variety Fair attendance seemed great. There were some amazing vendors this year; a lot of them are repeat vendors,” said president Sarah Dezotell.
“We greatly appreciate their support year after year, as well as the support of the community members who attend, buy raffle and 50/50 tickets, have lunch, and shop. Already looking forward to another successful event next year.”
Davidson Playschool is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to fostering a safe, fun, and educational space for three and four-year-olds in the community.
