Syrian Refugee Fundraiser

YOU can help!

Please JOIN, SHOP, and SHARE this event!



Makers Move was created to be a platform for Manitobans to support each other; however we feel very strongly about helping all of humanity.

Our hearts break for the refugees from Seria. Like us, you may have been asking yourself what you can do to help. Makers Move Manitoba is in the process or organizing a way that you can help by rasing funds that we will donate 100% of the funds to a local charity that will go towards the refugees of Syria who are entering Manitoba.

We are in the process of deciding where the money should go so if you have any suggestions, please let us know!



We need donations!


At this point, we are looking for people who are willing to donate anything that they make that other Manitoban's might be interested in purchasing.
