The Rotary Club of Tsawwassen is hosting a dinner next Sunday, Feb. 25, that will raise money for seniors at home as well as abroad, in war-torn Ukraine.

The Hope and Healing Benefit takes place at Kinvillage Community Centre, and will feature Ukrainian food and performances from the Kvitka Ukrainian School of Dance.

Dinner will be buffet style and includes salad, borscht, meatballs, varenyky, or perogies, sausage rolls and dessert.

“Rotarians share a vision to bring hope and healing to older persons by reaching out to those who are unwell, vulnerable, and isolated by providing support and caring to help their quality of life. This is one way we exemplify our motto, “Service Above Self,” said club president Yvonne Anderson.

Proceeds from the event will help seniors in Rotary’s local service area and will also go to HelpAge Canada which is on the ground in Ukraine helping seniors who are on the edge of survival, according to Rotary’s website.

Tickets are $100 and can be bought online at rotarytsawwassen.org and qualify for a $65 tax receipt.

Dinner is from 5:30 to 9 p.m.

KSW Lawyers is the lead sponsor for the event.
