Eugene Reimer Middle School Demonstrates the Power of Community Through Vaisakhi Fundraising

Eugene Reimer Middle School is proud to share the incredible impact of its recent Vaisakhi fundraising initiatives. Through the enthusiastic involvement of students, families, and staff, the school raised funds that have made meaningful contributions to several important causes.

Funds raised were distributed as follows:

• $2,000 was donated to support victims of the Lapu Lapu tragedy, offering critical relief and assistance.

• $2,000 was used to purchase essential items for Hope for Women, supporting vulnerable women in the community.

• $400 was contributed to the Abbotsford Food Bank to help provide food and vital resources to those experiencing food insecurity.

These efforts were made possible thanks to the dedication of the student leadership team and the guidance of committed staff sponsors. Fundraising activities included hot lunch sales, ticketed 3-on-3 basketball games, and a vibrant Vaisakhi celebration featuring a dance and photo booth—all of which were met with overwhelming support from the school community.

Eugene Reimer Middle School extends heartfelt thanks to everyone who participated and contributed. This initiative stands as a testament to the school’s strong sense of community and commitment to making a difference. Opportunities like these not only provide meaningful support to those in need—they also foster a spirit of compassion, leadership, and connection among students, showing that giving back is a powerful way to build and strengthen our community.
