The Surrey Fire Fighters’ Charitable Society, together with partners at KPU and Community Volunteer Sponsor Scotiabank, brought the community together for the 11th Annual Ignite a Dream Fundraiser last month. The evening was a celebration of generosity, hope, and the power of community, drawing more than 300 guests who shared in a vision of opportunity for local youth.

Ten exceptional restaurant sponsors and valued beverage partners added flavor to the night, while Platinum and Rental Sponsors, media partners, and the Presenting Sponsor, the Gary & Gail Grelish Foundation, made an extraordinary impact by matching donations up to $30,000. Thanks to this incredible support, over $70,000 in net proceeds was raised to fund scholarships for young people who have overcome significant adversity.

Ignite a Dream continues to shine as a testament to what can be achieved when a community rallies together. The fundraiser not only celebrates the generosity of its supporters but also opens doors for the leaders of tomorrow, proving that collective action and belief in possibility can transform lives.
