Thank Yous

These are hard times for so many families.  Yet, some people are even more generous when things get tough.  Louise S is one of those inspirational, shining lights!  During the pandemic, Louise worked so much overtime that she had extra money to share.  From her hard-earned money, she decided to give a financial gift to YANA.  I don’t know about you, but I need a tissue!   From the bottom of our hearts, thank you, Louise !

We may be closing in on winter, but we’re feeling blissful “States of Summer”, thanks to the generosity of this local business.  For 1 week in October, they donated $5 from every sale to YANA.  We appreciate you!

Thanks to the kids at Highland Secondary Interact Club,  the future looks bright!  We received a thoughtful donation from these amazing students with a simple note, “With Love”.   Awwww!  Sending gratitude to these fabulous kids and their equally fabulous teachers!

Huge thank you to Jocelin and Mosaic Forest Management for their recent donation to YANA.  This donation was made possible by a matching employee giving program.  We appreciate you thinking of us, Jocelin! 

Do you know a family that has been helped by YANA?  Last year YANA assisted 172 families with 433 medical trips!  Ruth, a local resident, has a dear friend who received YANA’s care and financial assistance this year.  She was moved to donate to YANA because we had helped someone she loves.  We adore these stories and are so touched by Ruth’s generosity.  Her contribution allows us to go ahead and help even more of our local families!  

We’d like to give a shout out to Boston Pizza for a recent donation.  Thank you for choosing YANA to be the recipient of your charitableness!

Life isn’t fair, as we all know.  But going through hard times often brings out the best in people.   We’d like to acknowledge an extremely generous and caring Grandpa, who recently donated to YANA.  Why?  Because YANA had come to the aid of his grandchild, helping to provide financial assistance to the family.  Thank you, Anonymous Grandpa, for creating a “Circle of Giving” that has inspired us and warmed all our hearts.

Welcome to the valley, Brown’s Social House!  These community-minded folks donated proceeds from their Grand Opening to YANA.  We’re so grateful when local businesses keep us in mind for their charitable giving.   Thank you so much!

Sending our gratitude out to Courtenay Return It Depot and all the eco-friendly Courtenay residents who helped to support YANA by donating your returnables!  Your contributions help Comox Valley families who must travel for the medical treatment of a child or pregnant mother.

Thank you to the Comox Return Centre and all the environmentally-friendly people of Comox who helped raise funds for YANA by donating your returnables to us!  Every little bit counts and we’re grateful for your support!
