Other Ideas?

We appreciate our supporters’ many creative ideas for raising funds. From hosting our traditional Breaking Bread events and Red Pashmina Walks to unique ideas including bake sales, cinema events, book clubs and more. Creative supporters sell pottery and donate the proceeds, host belly dancing workshops, and more. We look forward to hearing your idea.

 

Pub and Coffee Events

The Piper Doves of Toronto hosted a gathering at a pub and a coffee catch up. Hoping to raise $1,000, they were thrilled to send $3,000 to CW4WAfghan. They encouraged guests to dress up, and had music, raffle prizes and an enjoyable time supporting a cause they believe in.

Red Pashmina Walks

From Victoria to Peterborough, our members host Red Pashmina walks.
