Giving Back 🤍
At the heart of Root & Restore is the belief that care has a ripple effect.
That's why $5 from every ticket sold will be donated to support the rebuilding of the Interior Wildlife Rehabilitation Society in Summerland, BC, following the devastating Bald Range wildfire that destroyed their wildlife rehabilitation facility.
By joining us, you're not only creating space for your own restoration. You'll also be helping support the care and rehabilitation of injured and orphaned wildlife as this incredible organization rebuilds for the future.
Thank you for helping us extend the spirit of restoration beyond this event.
