Highlights from Last Year

Handbags for Health 2025 Raises Over $6,300 for Vital Community Programs

On February 7, 2025, supporters came together for an inspiring evening at Handbags for Health — and thanks to the generosity of attendees, sponsors, donors, and volunteers, over $6,300 was raised to support essential services offered by Community Care City of Kawartha Lakes.

Where Your Support Goes

Proceeds from the event will help fund a wide range of Community Care programs that help local seniors and adults live safely, stay connected, and maintain independence in their own homes. From Specialized Transportation vans, subsidized Meals on Wheels, and Adult Day programming, to ensuring access to our Community Dental Clinic and Hospice & Grief Services, your contributions help bridge the funding gap and bring health and wellness services to those who need them most.

To honour the legacy of the event, proceeds from the Fund-a-Need portion of the evening will continue to support our Hospice Services, providing compassionate care and comfort to individuals and families navigating the final stages of life.

A Heartfelt Thank You

We extend our deepest gratitude to everyone who made Handbags for Health 2025 a success:

• To our attendees: Thank you for bringing your energy, enthusiasm, and generosity.
• To our sponsors: Your support amplifies our impact and allows us to serve more people in our community.
• To the incredible caterers: Your delicious contributions made the evening even more memorable.
• And to all our volunteers: Thank you for the time, care, and effort you gave to ensure everything ran smoothly.

We couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. Your involvement helps create a stronger, healthier Kawartha Lakes for all.
