One of our nearest and dearest organizations to partner with is the YWCA in Regina, SK. Their annual Walk-A-Mile fundraiser is an outstanding event dedicated to raising awareness for domestic and gender-based violence. We are proud to have worked on this event (and many more) with the YWCA over the past few years, and see first-hand what a huge impact they have on our community. 

Walk a Mile 2023

A balloon arch is a necessity for any event with a start or finish line. Mixing sizes and colours of balloons throughout the arch creates a sense of fun and grandeur that stands out for miles!
