Fewer than two days remain in the Great Canadian Giving Challenge! Every dollar you donate to the BC Historical Federation gives us another chance to win $20,000.
By donating, you support community historians who are uncovering the diverse cultural, artistic, genealogical and geological history of BC.
The Great Canadian Giving Challenge is a national public contest to benefit Canadian charities. Every $1 donated to a registered charity in June via CanadaHelps, automatically enters the charity to win an additional $20,000 donation.
The $20,000 grand prize draw will take place on Canada Day, where one lucky charity will win!
