The Fedora Open is the only annual fundraiser for the Michael “Mickey” Soroka Charitable Foundation. It is held in the summer on the last Sunday in July, which is in advance of the major project requests that occur in the fall generated by the teachers and staff of the K-12 Campbell City Schools. Since the COVID pandemic, this has been our sole fundraiser for the entire year and it generates funds that provide educational assistance and contribute to academic programs which inspire and guide students of Campbell City Schools. In addition to funding four scholarships totaling over $6,000, we sponsor several educational and development activities for the students throughout the school year. The Soroka Foundation does not have any paid staff, so all net fundraising is used for the benefit of the students. We have an annual professional audit and are a Silver Level participant in the Candid program.

To volunteer for this program locally in Canada or to gain volunteer hours, please email us at info@sewacanada.com

According to Statistics Canada, in spring 2024, nearly half (45%) of Canadians reported that rising prices were greatly affecting their ability to meet day-to-day expenses, 12 percentage points higher than what it was two years earlier (33%). Rising prices have a disproportionate impact on lower-income people in Canada. Rising prices are affecting the ability of Canadians to meet their day-to-day expenses, their concerns with housing affordability, the likelihood that they will obtain food or meals from community organizations, their financial stress, and the relationship between financial stress and quality of life. While food banks are facing an increased number of users, various shelters across cities do need help too with providing meals to its users. If you wish to volunteer your time to this program or gain volunteer hours, please email us at info@sewacanada.com.

Goal: Sewa Canada International has launched its 'Feed the Hungry in Canada' program in a few cities across Canada and aims to do more every month in more cities across Canada. The program involves providing:-

1. Hot meals prepared by our volunteers to the needy.
2. Dry food donations by our volunteers to the needy.

While most of the intended beneficiaries are the underprivileged and needy at shelters or missions in various cities, we will also attempt to address seniors in need or international students who may need help with dry food donations.

So far we have provided this service in Toronto, London, Ottawa, Edmonton and Vancouver and aim to recruit new volunteers in other cities to carry out this service. We partner with other charities to deliver these meals.

A hot meal with fruit, bread, cookies/chips, its packaging and delivery can cost up to $5 per person. Please DONATE generously to help us feed the underprivileged in Canada. You may also direct your donations to a specific city of your choice by indicating the name of the city in the message field while making the donation. All donations are tax deductible in Canada. Tax receipts will be issued automatically. If you wish to volunteer your time to this program or gain valuable experience in volunteer hours, please email us at info@sewacanada.com.

The Dearborn County Pride Festival is a one-day event that aims to unify our community in celebration of Pride. The Festival was established to provide visibility and empowerment to both youth and adults within the community, with the hope of mitigating some of the disproportionate challenges that the LGBTQ+ community faces daily. Our goal is to decrease rates of bullying, discrimination, suicide, addiction, mental health issues, and self-destructive behaviors — all of which, unfortunately, occur at a significantly higher rate within the LGBTQ+ community. In fact, rural communities such as ours have a substantial number of youth and adults who struggle to embrace their true identities. One of our primary objectives is to establish a consistent presence in Dearborn County, Indiana, extending beyond a single day's event.
