The Rotary Club of Edmonton invites you to STEP UP and support charities serving our most vulnerable citizens. Known as Edmonton's original mac and cheese luncheon, the event has benefited charities in the inner city, including iHuman, Boyle McCauley Health Centre, and CEASE (Centre to Eliminate All Sexual Exploitation).  Our aim is two-fold:

1) Raise awareness to the homelessness issues faced within Edmonton

2) Come together to raise funds in support of this cause.

Please join us in person for a modest luncheon at the Chateau Lacombe.

The guest speaker last year was Don Iveson, former Mayor of Edmonton and Co-Chair of the Canadian Alliance to End Homelessness.

Please join us in our mission to support organizations addressing social issues in the downtown core.

Details of the following to be announced shortly:

1. Wine Tree Raffle
