Schools and Our Children

Last year we started a challenge for the

schools to participate in. Throughout the

year we have had the children raising

money for the “Pot of Soup” program

as well as collecting food to fill the

“Famous Soup Pots”. It has been incredible

on how much the children have done.  We

go through at least two pots of soup a day,

which serves just over 300 bowls.  We have

also had  St. Mark’s, Bishop Roberecki

and Father Robinson prepare and deliver

a “Pot of Soup” to us once a week.

*  FUNDRAISING AND ACCOUNTABLITY TO OUR DONORS  

We would like to take this opportunity to recognize some of our donors. As the days go by, the successes we see are truly rewarding.  The Saskatoon Friendship Inn is a crucial part of this community and with the donations of many we are still open. However, we are grateful for the financial assistance we receive throughout the year as our numbers have increased as have the costs of food, operating costs, etc. Our dollars are very precious to us and our gratitude to those who give generously.
