9th Annual Treasure Chest of Hope  Dear Community Member, Soroptimist International of North & West Vancouver, a service organization of business and professional women, are once again directing their major fundraising efforts towards providing assistance to a very worthwhile cause in the local community. Over the past eight years, with the generous support of organizations and people like you, Soroptimists on the north shore have raised more than $168,000 for local charities through the annual Treasure Chest of Hope.  This year the funds raised will again benefit the North Shore Youth Safe House.  We recognize the importance of the Youth Safe House for at risk teens in our community. The Treasure Chest of Hope Dinner and Dance for 2009 will be held on Saturday, November 7th at the Hollyburn Country Club in West Vancouver and the members of Soroptimist International of North and West Vancouver invite you to support this event.  You can join us for an evening of fine dining, dancing, raffles, silent and live auctions.  Alternatively, you can show your support by making a donation in either cash or kind, to the raffles and silent/live auctions.  Please help us make the evening an even greater success by pledging your support to a much needed project in our community. Yours sincerely, Soroptimist International of North & West Vancouver www.soroptimistnvwv.org
