GET INSPIRED BY OUR COMMUNITY FUNDRAISERS

After staying at RMH BC & Yukon while Zoie underwent treatment for stage 4 Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, she and her mom Corinne found a creative outlet in making silicone bead keychains—crafting over 250 as a fun distraction during tough times. In December 2024, they hosted a cozy home fundraiser with hot chocolate, cookies, and keychains, raising an incredible $1,500 for RMH BC. With Zoie now cancer-free, they’re continuing to give back and will be selling keychains again at the Yarrow Days Parade on June 7th, with all proceeds donated to RMH BC.

At just 5 years old, Benji is already making a big impact! He’s the grandson of Bob and Jennifer Gardner, dedicated members of our weekly volunteer group and Housewarmer program at RMH BC. Inspired by his grandma, Benji began collecting bottles and cans, donating half of his proceeds—an incredible $150—to support families staying at the House. Motivated to help other kids like him, Benji is already back at it, collecting again. Big heart, little hero! 

UPCOMING COMMUNITY FUNDRAISERS

Support The Super Dave Classic

April 19, 2025

Started by a group of college friends, these buddies will lace up for the annual Super Dave Classic—a friendly marathon competition with a meaningful mission. Each year, Tyler and his friends race to beat their personal bests and raise funds for a cause close to their hearts. This year, they’ve chosen RMH BC after one of their friends experienced the comfort of the House when his daughter was born 17 weeks early.

Last year, the Super Dave Classic raised $2,000, and they’re aiming even higher this time. The marathon will take place in Scotch Creek, and donations are being collected through their fundraising page on the RMH BC Community Hub.
