‘Marzie Days’ fundraiser

'Marzie Days'

Sam Odrowski

Gaby Emond sorted through some of the hundreds of flowers that were on display for the seventh and final “Marzie Days” fundraiser in Burris on Saturday where well over 2,000 plants were sold along with arts, crafts, and homemade baking. The organizer of the event, Barb Redford, was able to raise $7,6000 for the Winnipeg Children’s Rehab Foundation that looks after her granddaughter. Great West Life will match the Redford’s fundraising total to make a total contribution of $15,200. In the seven years since the sale started, it has raised just over $50,000 total.
