YANA hosts a winter gala, a summer biking event, a Christmas campaign and a special initiative through the schools. Each year, there are also many events led by community members in support of local families. We are incredibly grateful for the energy and dedication behind these fundraisers and for everyone who contributes and participates! Beyond raising funds, we aim to raise community awareness, engage community spirit and celebrate all of the love that surrounds YANA.
Events
YANA Week in the Schools
Many schools within School District 71 plan events during a special week in May dedicated to YANA, raising awareness and funds. Contact YANA for more info!
YANA Ride
The annual YANA Ride brings together riders of all ages, abilities, and disciplines in one massive community-wide event to raise funds in support of YANA families.
YANA Christmas Crackers
Christmas crackers are lovingly handcrafted by volunteers and then sold to support YANA's services. Crafting is ongoing throughout the year and sales start mid-November.
YANA Big Love Benefit
An annual dinner and auction the last Friday in February in celebration of the philanthropy and love that surrounds YANA. Tickets on sale the 3rd Sunday in January.
