Keefer Yard x Hastings PAC

Now through October 31st, 2021

We are so excited to be teaming up with the awesome folks at The Keefer Yard for an amazing fundraising opportunity! For the next couple of weeks, play a round of mini-golf and donate to the Hastings PAC. Gather a few friends, enjoy a night out, and support your child’s school!

Because of COVID, fundraising abilities have been limited, so the Hastings PAC hasn’t been able to fund as much as previous school years.

One area adversely affected is classroom supplies, which, up until this year, the PAC has been able to fund a portion for each teacher. Money donated through The Keefer Yard will allow the Hastings PAC to support its teachers again for the 2021/22 school year with this classroom supply allowance, enabling them to purchase teaching tools, art supplies, math manipulatives, and other compliments to help support learning.

A huge thank you to The Keefer Yard on behalf of the Hastings Parent Advisory Council for their amazing community support!

Student Art Fundraiser

A message from the class…

Hello Hastings Community!

Division 18’s Grade 5/6 students would like to invite you to our art fundraiser, ‘Building Black Futures’, at The Laughing Bean!

Our class has been inspired by the important contributions of Black icons and the Black Lives Matter movement, and has organised this fundraiser in the hopes that it can serve as a small but meaningful step in the building of Black futures in Vancouver.

This art exhibit and fundraiser will present art made by students featuring important Black trailblazers and icons. These artworks are not only visual representations, but also educational keepsakes: they include short biographies celebrating the life and accomplishments of these famous figures. It is our hope that by sharing these works with our community we can help spread their stories and contributions more widely.

This art exhibit and fundraiser will take place at The Laughing Bean and will run from Monday, June 21 through Sunday, June 27. The Laughing Bean is open until 4 pm every day. Artworks will be sold on a sliding scale starting at $10. The Laughing Bean accepts cash and debit. 100% of funds raised will be donated to the Hogan’s Alley Society, a non-profit organization committed to promoting and preserving Vancouver’s Black History!

We hope you can visit the exhibit!:)

Sincerely,
Division 18 students
