It's the most wonderful time of the year.

The Âé¶čAV Sunrise Rotary Club is back with its fourth Annual Season of Giving - 12 Days of Prizes Calendar.

There are 72 prizes totalling $34,923 including cash, grocery gift cards, golf and travel experiences and more. Six winners will be drawn each day from Dec. 25 to Jan. 5. Only 4,000 calendars are available.

“Everyone will have lots of fun playing along and feel good knowing that proceeds go to supporting the Child & Youth Advocacy Centre of Âé¶čAV (CYAC) and Rotary initiatives that reach our community’s most vulnerable,” Rotary Past President Randall Bamford said in a news release. 

The Advent style calendar can be purchase at any Save-On-Foods in the Central Okanagan. Rotarians will also be selling calendars at holiday markets and craft fairs. 

Artwork for the calendar was done by Lake Country artist Leanne Spanza has a meaningful connection to the CYAC. 

“Two of Leanne’s pieces hang in our interview hallway,” said executive director, Ginny Becker. “It’s the space where children first start to unburden themselves of the difficult truth they have been carrying with them and the first stop on their journey to healing.” 

Business Finders Canada (BFC) is again the presenting sponsor of the raffle, which has raised $455,000 in its first three years. 

“The calendar raffle reflects the strength of our community, businesses stepping up to donate, the Rotary Club driving the cause with their commitment, and organizations like CYAC carrying out the crucial work they do every day,”  said BFC Founder Steve Harvey.
