Our Bears Are Bringing Our Children Home

On January 24, 2005, Surrounded By Cedar began to reconnect our Aboriginal children to their families, communities and cultures. That day marked the first time two of our social work staff members traveled from Victoria to Powell River with two children to their home community of Sliammon.

That day our children met over 100 family and community members. It was the children’s first visit home in 15 years.

You can help us bring more children home by purchasing a “Surrounded By Cedar Bear”

Individual minimum donation $25

Agency or Society minimum donation $100

Income tax receipts available on request

All money raised will help cover transportation costs for our children and families.

To make your donation, please contact our Office Manager.
Tel: (250) 383-2990
Email: assistant@sccfs.com
Or mail us your donation and the cutest bear dressed in a SCCFS vest and button head band will be sent to your return address.
