On Thursday, June 11, our Spelling Bee Challenge will return in-person for the first time since 2019. Historically our most vital fundraising initiative, the Bee serves as the engine of our year-round programming. 

Hosted at beautiful VanDusen Botanical Garden, this lunchtime event brings together some of the Lower Mainland’s most community-forward professionals—including top litigators and justices, portfolio managers, accountants, and tech teams—for some spirited but friendly, team-based competition for spelling supremacy. All in support of our children’s literacy programs across BC. 

So, take the opportunity to step away from your desk and help us close the literacy gap in British Columbia. This is one time that words truly do make a difference.

Register a team of 8, or join us as an individual speller!
