Happy Holidays, Pull up a Chair Fundraiser

In celebration of the Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday season,
we invite you to pull up a chair at Galilee Centre.

After many years, the time has come to replace our conference room chairs. With thanks to Cohen & Cohen of Ottawa,we were able to secure 50 new, stacking, fabric chairs for use in the Oak Room and other conference areas.

To help cover the cost of this one time expense, we are asking our community members to consider sponsoring a chair for $50, in the name of their family or a loved one, or in memory of someone who enjoyed spending time at Galilee. Each sponsored chair will have a nameplate added to honour our supporters.

Thank you in advance for pulling up a chair in support of Galilee. We are so blessed to have you all as part of our community. Click here to sponsor online or call the main office at 613-623-4242 x 21.
