We are so grateful to Granny’s Poultry for donating the chicken again this year! Pastor Rob Martens from the Mitchell Gospel church was our MC. You did a great job! Thank you and your church for partnering with us for the past 10 plus years! You are a small church with a far reach! Rachel Siemens came out and covered our event so well, on Steinbach on Line! Elaine Peters had 40 volunteers who cheerfully came out to serve. Does anyone ever say no to you Elaine? Probably not. I love how you live by example! There are so many people we could thank individually and of course all who gave so generously!

Thank you to Principal Joe Thiessen and Vice Principal John Terrick for allowing your students to think outside the box and for introducing them to global development at such early ages. You are raising up students who will be world changers at home in their local communities and world wide! Your staff is remarkable! Six of your teachers sponsor children. Other families and students in your school also sponsor our children. Treats and Treasures has raised many dollars over the years for Provision of Hope! Thank you Elaine Peters for being our MB Rep and Advocate!
Treats and Treasures is a Giant Garage Sale put on by the K-4 students. They bring baked treats and all kinds of personal items to sell. Everyone gets to shop! Gr 4 students are the vendors and look after the money. What a great idea Mitchell Elementary!!
