Neufeld Farms Band Fundraiser

We are very excited for our first band fundraiser of the year!

Neufeld’s offers many different frozen food options for all varieties of people: chicken, beef, vegetarian options, pasta, pizzas, fries, cookie dough, pies, and other delicious items!

The amounts raised will benefit the child selling the product and will go directly into an account at school, saved in trust for them, so they can use this money for their band trip in grade 8.  A band trip is an opportunity for grade 8 band students to celebrate and showcase their learned skills in a different location.  If you do not have a child in the band program you can still place an order and choose “No Known Seller”.

IMPORTANT:

1. Orders are due by Wednesday, October 1st, 2025, end of day.
2. The delivery day will be on Wednesday, October 8^th, 2025 at 2:00pm at Chief Dan George. Please note that the sellers are responsible for picking up their customers' orders and we cannot hold any items in the freezer at school. If you cannot make this date, please arrange with Ms. Hutchinson ahead of time to have an alternate person pick it up.
3. Payment is through credit card and there are no extra fees like in previous years for credit card use.
