We understand the importance of creating impact and giving back to the community. Each year KWIB partners with a local organization as a charity affiliation: a large portion of all membership fees, event ticket sales, and special fundraising goes directly to the organization. For the 2019-2020 KWIB season, we are honoured to announce we have chosen to partner with Dress For Success Kelowna.
