We would like to thank all

was a great success and we had wonderful
feedback from those that attended.
This event has generated
much interest and enthusiasm, we have decided

and customer participaction.
That being said . . . for
future tastings you can check in store for

Thanks again for making
VIVA L'ITALIA a success.

On Saturady,
September 19-2009, we had our annual Loaves
of Love campaign and with the generosity
of our customers & people walking by on
the street, we had a record year!! 100% of
the proceeds went to help The BC Children's
Hospital Foundation. Thanks again for putting
smiles where they belong!!
BC
Children's Hospital is the province's only
full-service acute care hospital and serves
the one million children living in BC and
the Yukon. All children who are seriously
ill or injured are referred to Children's
Hospital and are either treated at the hospital
facility in Vancouver or, with consultation
from Children's specialists, in their home
community. Last year, more than 75,000 children
were treated at Children's Hospital. BC Children's
Hospital Foundation received donations from
more than 82,000 people last year and had
revenues of over $54.4 million.
This event
helps support urgent needs including new equipment,
clinical care, research, and educational programs.
Today the need is greater than ever. Plans
are underway to build a new Children's Hospital
on the current site. This hospital will be
a state-of-the-art facility that will help
BC's children and their families well into
the future. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity
to help future generations.
