TODAY IS THE DAY!! We are so excited to FINALLY share all of the incredible details of our upcoming VIP Lunch Fundraiser in support of Mamas for Mamas with you!! This has taken a few months to plan and organize so we’re over the moon to be at this point and to give you all of the nitty-gritty details you’ve all been patiently waiting for!
As I mentioned in Friday’s blog post, I will be hosting this very intimate lunch fundraiser at Kitsch Wines here in beautiful Kelowna, BC! Not only will you be able to take in gorgeous views while enjoying an indulgent lunch with fresh produce provided by Nature’s Fare, prepared by the amazing team at Start Fresh Catering, and sipping on some delish Okanagan wine and bubbly from La Marca but you’ll also be serenaded by not one but TWO incredible country performers!!! That’s right, Aaron Pritchett AND Dean Brody will be giving our 40 LUCKY guests a private acoustic performance!
We will also be joined by our special guest … one of my fellow Canadian besties, KAITLYN BRISTOWE!!! Kaitlyn and I also plan on doing a little Q&A session so all of our guests can ask us their BURNING questions!! I can only imagine how raw, honest, and hilarious this Q&A will be!!
I also want to extend a big thank you to Yuriko from Vintage Origami for her incredible event planning skills and to Tifni from Refined Furniture Rentals for providing the benches and tables for our event … it’s going to be BEAUTIFUL!!
PLUS, Team Jilly and my cousins (Tori from Fraiche Nutrition, Sammy & Steph!!) will be serving YOUR delicious lunch!! Not to mention, EVERY single guest will be receiving a swag bag FILLED with some of MY favourite items valued at over a WHOPPING $1,000!! I don’t want to reveal exactly WHAT will be in the swag bags but I’ll let you know that some of these AMAZING companies are included!!

Hi Team Jilly!
I just donated to Mamas for Mamas on the auction page through PayPal. I didn’t enter any of my information so I just want to make sure I’m entered into the draw for brunch tickets! (The one downfall of having accounts remember your information for you, I guess.)
Thanks!
Anya
Can someone tell me if the bidding ticket is tax recieptable? Just curious for biding purposes! That would help to know for biding amounts!!! Does the money go directly to mamas for mamas? Then I would assume it can be claimed for tax purpose. 🙂 as it is a charity.
Thank you! ♥️♥️♥️
Unfortunately I am not able to bid on a ticket but I did just make a donation to Mamas for Mamas! It is for such a good cause and would be such a wonderful event to attend. Fingers crossed!! 🙂
Hi team!
I have the same question as Anya below. How do I know if I’m entered into the contest?
Thanks!

If you make a donation through the 32 Auctions site it links your email up with your donation!! So, to everyone donating, make sure to check your email on Wednesday in case you are one of the lucky winners! xo
Donated and my fingers are crossed!, It only asked for my billing info so hopefully I am entered as well. If not worth it for the cause! Great job raising money for other mamas!
This would be a DREAM come true! Holy moly! Not only going to a good cause but seeing Team Jilly and Kaitlyn at the same time… I think fan girl crying would 100% happen. It sounds so extremely wonderful and I can’t wait to donate. Wish I had a lotto winning in my account, lol. It’s so great to see you now have 5 seats for people who can’t afford to donate huge amounts. Everything about this event sounds amazing. Whoever is picked will be extremely lucky!! I hope you raise lots of money.
Donation made, however am curious if tax receipts are issued for donations and/or bids? Thanks
I would love to donate. I am just wondering if the donation/bid is tax deductible?
OMG!! We will be in Kelowna from May 29 to June 2 and we’re from Leduc Alberta – This is a sign! Donated for me and my sister – fingers crossed! Would be a dream come true to meet everyone! Will Nacho and peaches be part of the lunch…could use some puppy snuggles as well 🙂
Thanks Team Jilly!!

Just a few hours left to bid – how exciting! I so wish I could be there this year but I’ll be on holiday with my husband. I don’t think he’d be too pleased if I chose Team Jilly over him?! Best of luck with the event – it will undoubtedly be amazing! So much fun in store for the 40 lucky guests,
Hi Jillian. My name is Jessie King and I’m 24 years old from Sudbury Ontario. I lived in Vancouver until I succumbed to the throes of an eating disorder and had to fly home for inpatient treatment. This was in 2017 when I realized I needed help from a certain program here. I have been receiving treatment ever since. And throughout all of this, I have looked up to you as a role model, a devoted worker and as someone who has their values and passions in line. Thank you for helping me strive lengths to get to stronger seconds, moment and days. Thank you for being real and genuine. I couldn’t help but donate to your cause after all of the amazing benefits I see it has for the Mamas for Mamas charity. Its inspiring and incredible. I hope 20$ shows I care in any small way, and that it’s in support of you and all of the other women. I really hope you see within yourself that you can inspire people from so far.
I especially hope and pray, this message can actually get to you. Thank you.
I saw in your insta stories your goodie bag for this event had a “Home sweet home” sign. Where was that from?
