The School relies heavily on fundraising projects from which the proceeds are earmarked for specific needs. Listed below are fund raising activities for 2023-2024.
IHMS FUND RAISING RAFFLE – Wednesday, November 29, 2023
The Annual Fund Raising Raffle takes place the last Wednesday in November. The Fund Raising Raffle has the potential of distributing up to 7,000.00 in prizes! There are 500 tickets printed. The first ticket drawn, and every 25th ticket drawn thereafter, will win $200.00. The final ticket drawn will be awarded $ 3,000.00. Proceeds from this fund raiser will be used for the advancement of educational programs at the school.
Tickets are being sold for $50.00 and are now available through the IHMS School Office (phone 204-582-5698 or email: ihms@ihms.mb.ca).
All IHMS families are responsible for selling a minimum of 2 tickets at a total value of $100.00. If anyone is able to sell more, extra tickets are available through the school office. The more tickets our school sells the larger the profit for the school. Last year there were twelve families in our school community that were $200.00 winners!
Thank you to all the supporters that purchased a ticket for the 2023 Annual IHMS Fund Raising Raffle. Your support is tremendously appreciated. For a full list of the winning tickets from the 2023 Fund Raising Raffle, click on the below link:

IHMS SUPER SPRING 50/50 RAFFLE
Immaculate Heart of Mary School has made the decision to cancel the IHMS Super Spring 50/50 Raffle (normally scheduled to run in March, 2022). We feel that the priority in our community must be focused on supporting the critical needs of our brothers, sisters, family and friends in Ukraine. Please do what you can to support humanitarian organizations supporting our brothers, sisters, family and friends in Ukraine.
The Parents’ Guild has compiled a Cook Book of favourite family recipes and can be purchased through the school office.
Occasionally specific classes will hold a fund raiser to assist in special activities (eg. Camp, Graduation, etc.).
