Another one to thank this week Bama Furniture

They've been part of our 365 Small Business Circle, supporting local kids and families for as little as a dollar a day.

If you own a business and want in, we'd love to talk: unitedwayabnw.org/get-involved/365-small-business-circle-2 🏪

🎱 Supporting Our Community! 🚁

This past Saturday, we came together for our annual charity pool tournament in support of United Way!

A huge thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and helped make our fundraiser possible. It’s always great to see our community come together for such an important cause!

But the fundraising doesn’t stop there!

United Way’s Heli-Drop 2026 is just around the corner, and they need our help!

Every golf ball purchased supports the Big Brothers Big Sisters After School Program, helping local youth learn, grow, and build meaningful connections.

🚁 Purchase a golf ball for your chance to win while supporting a great cause!

From the pool table to the helicopter drop, every bit of support makes a difference! ❤️

We have just 2 DAYS LEFT to sell almost 200 golf balls for United Way’s Heli Drop, and we need our community to rally together!

💰 What would YOU do with $10,000?

Take the family to Disneyland? Pay off your car? Book that dream vacation? Or finally put some extra money into savings?

For just $25 per golf ball, you could have a chance at $10,000 while supporting something much bigger.

Every ball purchased helps support Big Brothers Big Sisters of Grande Prairie (BBBS Grande Prairie & Area) and their Big Horizon program, creating opportunities, mentorship and brighter futures for local youth.

These programs depend on community support to keep making a difference. And right now, YOUR support matters more than ever. ❤️

🚁 This Sunday at 2 PM, the golf balls will drop from the sky, and one lucky ball could be worth $10,000!

🎟️ Grab your golf ball TODAY! Every purchase brings us closer to our fundraising goal. https://rafflebox.ca/raffle/uwabnw-hd26/

300+ GOLF BALLS. JUST DAYS LEFT. WE NEED YOU, GRANDE PRAIRIE!

This is about so much more than a chance to win $10,000.

It's about making sure children in our community have somewhere safe to go after school. Somewhere they belong. Somewhere they can build friendships, discover new interests, receive encouragement, and simply be kids.

BIG Horizons is a FREE after-school program for local families. We believe opportunities like this shouldn't be a luxury. They should be something every community works to protect.

But programs like ours don't continue on good intentions alone. They need people, partnerships, and a community willing to stand behind them.

Thanks to United Way Alberta Northwest, Heli-Drop is one of those opportunities to come together and make a difference.

We need to sell over 300 more golf balls in the next few days.

For just $25, you have a chance to win up to $10,000 while showing that Grande Prairie believes in investing in its young people.

Because keeping programs like BIG Horizons available isn't just important to the children who attend today. It's important to the families who will need them tomorrow.

Can't purchase a ball? Please share this post. Every share helps us reach someone who might.

Let's show our kids what a community standing behind them looks like. 💙 💙
