Thank you for the incredible community support!
The Yukon Imagination Library began the celebration of its 10th anniversary of providing free books to Yukon children with a Birthday Party and Fundraiser on May 17.
We were honoured to have Health and Social Services Minister Pauline Frost at the event to share her family’s story of reading, and announce the Government of Yukon’s continued 3-year commitment to match fund the Yukon Imagination Library with $50,000 per year.
The event was an incredible success and we would like to thank our community partners: The Government of Yukon, The Dolly Parton Imagination Library, The Rendezvous Rotary Club, Yukon College, The Yukon Chamber of Mines, Tintina Consultants, Alkan Air, The Carmacks Development Corp, The Yukon Indian Development Corp, and Dean Knoblauch and Tyson Boychuk of CIBC Wood Gundy.
We would also like to thank the local businesses and organizations that donated items to our event: Alkan Air, Muktuk Adventures, Tintina Consultants, Physio Plus, Mt. Sima, CBC Yukon, Yukon College, Takhini Hot Pools, Yukon Brewing, Angelina’s Toy Boutique, Blackbird Bakery, Cultured Fine Cheese and Corked: Fine Wine, Beer & Spirits.
And a big thank you to all of our volunteers who make the program happen!
