Welcome to Central Alberta Youth Unlimited's Summertime FUNdraisers!
(To find a specific staff member or programs campaign, scroll down or click "Campaigns" above)

Every summer, Central Alberta Youth Unlimited hosts a handful of peer to peer fundraisers. The money raised goes right back into our communities, and supports the work of the dedicated and passionate staff of Central Alberta Youth Unlimited/YFC who are at work in the lives of youth.

 

As a fun bonus and incentive, all of you have the opportunity to take advantage of some fund matching to help your efforts multiply even more! We will match 50% all fundraising! That means if you raise $5,000, we would give you a bonus $2,500! (certain max limitations per program or staff member, please email events@cayu.ca for more information)!

This year we have 3 unique fundraisers that our staff, friends and family are participating in:

Hike for Hope

For the past two years, Central Alberta Youth Unlimited hosted their annual Hike For Hope. The event was created and named to align with the goal Central Alberta Youth Unlimited strives to meet: to bring hope and wholeness to youth in Central Alberta. 

 

Throughout the summer, staff members, families and friends will be hiking all in advocacy of CAYU/YFC staff and/or programs that are geared to bring hope and wholeness to youth in Central Alberta.

 
This year, you get to choose the hike location and date! Interested in hiking for a staff member? Send an email to events@cayu.ca and we can add you to the campaign! Share the fundraiser link, or the pledge form to raise money for a staff member or program of your choosing!
 

Golf Marathon

For the past 16 years, Central Alberta Youth Unlimited has hosted an annual Golf Marathon.  Now, how is this different from any regular golf game you may ask?   The money raised goes right back into our communities, and supports the work of the dedicated and passionate staff of Central Alberta Youth Unlimited/YFC who are at work in the lives of youth.

 

Individual golfers will golf 36 holes fuelled by sponsors in their own social circles, all in advocacy of CAYU/YFC staff and/or programs that are geared to bring hope and wholeness to youth in Central Alberta.

 

Want to join in on the golfing fun? Either join us on July 29th at the Ponoka Golf Club, or select a golf course and date of your choosing! Send an email to events@cayu.ca for more information and to register.

*NEW* Mini-Golf Marathon

We are adding a new event this year, a Mini-Golf Marathon! 36 holes of mini-golf all to raise money that directly goes back into our communities. Want to join? By registering to be a golfer and raising funds on behalf of your friend/family member who works for CAYU, you'll get to golf 36 holes of mini golf (2 rounds)  in an act of advocacy! 

There are two ways to join this year’s Mini-Golf Marathon.

  1. You can join us at the Summerland RV Park Mini Golf on July 31st. You do have to confirm this is your choice, we will send you an email with a handful of tee-times to choose from. 
  2. You can choose your own day and own mini golf course to golf on!
