Since 1985, our dedicated Kalamalka Rotarians have hosted the biggest gala event of the year in Vernon – The Kalamalka Rotary Dream Auction.   (Okay, except for last year when a small pandemic pushed us into a Go Fund Me initiative)

Through our efforts, the generosity of bidders, donors, and sponsors alike, we have collectively raised over $4,440,000 since then, with 100% of all donations going to organizations that support families in our community and around the world.   

We have used your funds to feed children in the North Okanagan through the Starfish Program; built waterparks, skateboard parks and bike trails; funded hospital towers and Homes for Humanity; provided needed kitchens and transportation for those in need and supported countless other important projects. 

Internationally, we have helped to provide clean water and jobs in Haiti; built schools in Nepal and Ethiopia and rebuilt communities after natural disasters (just to name a few).

Today, the world has changed – a lot!    What was once a lecture from your parents to wash your hands, is now a must.  The stress and strain on families juggling priorities within a pandemic is growing.  Visits with seniors continues to be intermittent or restricted and large social gatherings have once again been altered. 

Although in-person gatherings may be limited, online connections are not.  So we are embracing technology and heading virtual with our Auction this year!   Everyone can register and follow our fabulous auction items as they are introduced here on this page.   

Our greatly anticipated Dream Auction cannot proceed this fall in its usual format.  However, the needs of families that depend on this event have grown, not vanished.     Now more than ever, we at Kal Rotary are committed to finding a way to continue to support them.   Will you help us?
