Events need people. And there’s tons
of events to choose from. Ride a motorbike. Swing a golf
club. Sip champagne at a gala. Guzzle beer at a Stampede ho
down or plan your own event. Whether it’s one of KCC’s
signature events or an event hosted by one of community
friends, it’s all fun and it helps the kids. If you can’t
make an event, don’t worry. You can still help out by
becoming an event donor or sponsor or pledging someone
taking part in the fundraising initiative.

Greek Festival
- Hellen Community Centre, 1 Tamarc Cr. SW
Annual Greek Festival – an opportunity to share our
Hellenic culture with our fellow Calgarians. And
when something works, why change it? So, this
festival, too, is about music, dance, wine and food.
But it’s also about coming together as friends,
having a good time, and saying, “Efharisto” (Thank
you) to Calgarians for enabling us to continue
supporting youth projects, the development of our
Community, and many charitable organizations within
Calgary. And who knows? Maybe somewhere along the
line, the gods will smile down on us too!
For more information and updates please check out

month of September we are raising awareness by
inviting organizations and companies to host a
community initiative in hopes of filling all 30 days
with events and raising $100,000 for KCC. Please
