Dear Friends, As a corporation dedicated to the health and welfare of our community families, you are invited to participate in the 2 nd annual Growing Up Health Trade Show coming to the Family Centre in Kitchener on May 3, 2015. Organized by Green Lava Media Inc, we bring together over 75 community resources, local vendors and engaging speakers with a focus on family health & wellness. We connect families with local agencies and corporations whose focus is to help them grow and thrive throughout all stages of family development. We are asking you to consider one or more of our sponsorship opportunities and to become part of an incredible day filled with trade show displays, key note speaks and of course, access to parents and caregivers who are looking for the best products and varied services for their family. An introduction at our Trade Show may bring lifelong commitment to young families seeking the best products and services available in our community. In 2014, our show attracted over 75 company and social service trade show booth participants, 600 guests, and speakers such as Kim Krueger-Kischak, Luisa DeSousa & Michelle Buckner. We offered informative and diverse speaker topics on everything from eating healthy, to managing stress, to yoga for kids. This is truly an innovative event bringing together vendors, expert speakers, and support networks that provide healthy options for every family.
