We build community in more ways than one. 

Building Community

  • Annual Lunch Fundraiser

    Each year, BOWDA raises tens of thousands of dollars for local nonprofits and charities at our annual Christmas Lunch Fundraiser. This is entirely thanks to the generosity of our members.

  • Local Sponsorship

    Many of our members sponsor local charitable events, programs, and campaigns each year. We are sure to communicate opportunities like these with our members.

  • Community Causes

    Outside of our annual fundraiser, we support local causes through donating services, time, and monetary gifts to local nonprofits and charities.

At our annual holiday luncheon and fundraiser in December 2021, BODA members opened their hearts and their wallets to generously help support two amazing local charities. Over the last 10 years, BOWDA has raised over $350,000.00 to help support local nonprofits and charities that directly improve the health and well-being of our communities here in the Bow Valley. Community building is what we do.
