Amanda McNally
Executive Director
Thank you to the 38 individuals who have signed up for monthly donations as part of our Hearts for Hospice Monthly Giving Program! Can you help us reach 40 monthly donors?
Donating monthly allows you to make smaller, recurring gifts, which creates a big impact over time. It's a convenient way to give that provides our organization with predictable revenue to ensure our professional grief and palliative programs and services are available, free of charge, to our community throughout the year.


On February 19th we will be having an Open House at our shop and showing the episode of the Historic Hot Rod Reunion of BC, My Classic Car TV Show that was filmed at Mission Raceway Park last August at the event itself.
Showing times are at 4pm, 6pm & 8pm.
This is the Premier Showing of 1 hour of footage for what will become the 20.4 minute tv episode by Dennis Gage of My Classic Car TV show. The footage has not yet been released, except to us at Jellybean AutoCrafters. It features additional directors choice footage that was done especially for this event, most of which won’t be on TV. This will be the only live showing of this footage.
We feel this is something that you won’t want to miss, so please feel free to pass this email on to your friends as well.
There is already major excitement about this event, so we strongly encourage you to register in advance.
The event will go, rain or shine as we’ll have a large screen and great sound system set up inside the shop. Some seating is available at the event but if you have your own chairs you could bring them along just in case.
Show Times are 4pm, 6pm & 8pm.
