nonna's sauce for smiles
THANK YOU TO OUR AMAZING COMMUNITY - WE ARE SOLD OUT!

KCIC Fundraiser for the Children of Kelowna
At the Kelowna Canadian Italian Club, we know that nothing says love like Nonna’s pasta sauce. For generations, our Nonnas have been serving up bowls of comfort, each spoonful infused with care, tradition, and that special ingredient only grandmothers have—pure love.

This year, we want to turn that love into something even bigger: hope and help for Kelowna’s children. We’re planning a community fundraiser where we take our favourite, time-honoured KCIC pasta sauce recipe and share it with the public—not just to fill plates, but to fill hearts.

A dedicated team of KCIC volunteers will lovingly prepare batches of this sauce, following the traditions that make them special.  The fresh sauce will be cooked, frozen, packaged and sold out of the Kelowna Canadian Italian Club Clubhouse located at 770 Lawrence Avenue. 

All for the Kids: 100% of the proceeds will be donated directly to the Kelowna General Hospital - Pediatric Ward, providing care, comfort, and resources for babies and children under 19 years of age who need a helping hand.  The ward offers acute care for illnesses, injuries, and surgical recovery.  

Just as Nonnas take joy in feeding their grandchildren, we believe our community has a shared responsibility to care for our youngest members. Every container of sauce sold represents not only a delicious meal but also a gesture of compassion for the children and families who need it most.

Because at KCIC, we believe that when love is the main ingredient, everyone gets nourished!
