We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing turnout in support for the BCO Jail and Bail at the MarketSquare Artisan Markets Spring Fling.
We had an amazing line up of BCO jailers that made this event the great success that it was in raising a total of $4780.00!

We became members of Okotoks & District Chambers of Commerce.
Our fall fundraiser left us speechless, the support within the community, Town of Okotoks and from the Okotoks and District Chamber of Commerce was immeasurable and it allowed BCO to create a new level of awareness of those in need in our communities and how we are all connected, including the importance of seeing each other. Our Christmas Feast fed 128 people, including 56 children, within 27 families. Every child had a present under the tree. So many supporters this season made this event the biggest act of kindness to date! Huge thanks go out to Okotoks Sobeys, Hallmark Does Hair, Pure Envy Salon, We Wash Windows, Pet Valu Okotoks, Okotoks Culture & Heritage, RBC, Excel Benefits Inc, iDental, The Eagle 100.9, Okotoks Western Wheel Newspaper, Linda (our Christmas angel for making stockings), our Calgary angel who made delicious treats, everyone who nominated a family in need (it's so important to look out for our neighbours during the holiday season), and all of our amazing volunteers who helped bring it all together and deliver the Christmas Feasts to each of our families. We had an article in Okotoks Living magazine, creating more awareness for our local community of how we offer a hand up and our future aspirations for those in need. We received an early Christmas present and got our official status as a Registered Charity! And none of this could have happened without all the support we received from all of you, our volunteers and from our communities throughout Alberta! Thank you. We have amazing plans for 2019, and we would love to have you join us! Follow us on Facebook to stay up-to-date with our latest news. Happy New Year, Team BCO BCO would like to express our deep gratitude to everyone at Norwex for their belief in Baby it's Cold Outside and our initiatives! From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for your incredible generosity. <3 #bcocharity #norwex #makingadifference
