Thank you to everyone who joined us and supported the day. On August 29, our community came together in Abbotsford to celebrate Egyptian culture and support Salsabeel’s work in Egypt.
Salsabeel volunteers and guests at the Egyptian Market.
Thank you, Abbotsford.
Held at OPEX Abbotsford, the market brought together Egyptian food, local stalls, music and henna. It was a pleasure to see familiar faces and meet people discovering Salsabeel for the first time.
Together, we raised $3,261 CAD to support Salsabeel’s work in Egypt. Thank you to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered or took part as a vendor, and to OPEX Abbotsford for hosting us.
A welcome guest
We were very happy to be joined by Abbotsford Councillor Patricia Driessen. Thank you for spending part of the day with us.
