New fundraising record for Habitat for Humanity Victoria’s
10th annual Gingerbread Showcase!
Habitat for Humanity Victoria’s 10th Annual Gingerbread Showcase wrapped-up on January 6th with more than 14,000 votes cast and a new fundraising record achieved. A total of $93,000+ was raised from a combination of individual donations, corporate donations and sponsorships.
The Gingerbread Showcase is Habitat Victoria’s premier annual fundraiser. This year, 100 per cent of the money raised from the event will go directly into funding the Habitat home currently under construction in Central Saanich -- a small single-family home within a larger development in the heart of Saanichton Village.
THANK YOU to our community of supporters who helped make this achievement possible!

Habitat Victoria appreciates that the supplies you purchase are very expensive so we have come up with a way to help you. We will provide you with a form on which you can itemize all legitimate expenses such as sugar, flour, candies, fondant, etc. The form will be submitted to us with all store receipts. Once we have received your form and receipts, we will send you a charitable tax receipt which will lower your taxable income for 2018. Charitable tax receipts may only be issued to individuals, not companies.
