www.trustedregina.com is pleased to announce a new partnership with www.kinderbuzz.com . For those of you Mothers, Fathers and Families that haven't heard of Kinderbuzz yet, we can tell you that www.kinderbuzz.com is the most comprehensive online publication for families in Regina and surrounding areas. They have a good following on Facebook ( Click here to FAN ) where they aregreat at keeping you updated on whats going on .....you can follow them here on Twitter too. ...or just click on their lovely banner ad on www.trustedregina.com home page!
Trusted saw immediately that the demographic of Kinderbuzz is very similar to the demographics of people that are drawn to and will use Trusted...Our Facebook fans are predominantly female in Saskatoon and we imagine that will be the same in Regina ..and most fall in the 25-45 age bracket......most are busy parents, who like to have centralised places to provide answers rather than trawling all over town ( or the web..which can take just as long sometimes) trying to find stuff out.Kinderbuzz offers great opinions, insight and up to date news and info for everything family and they love the whole Trusted Idea...like Trusted it was founded by women ..and currently it is also an all women team..we have so much in common and we look forward to promoting and endorsing them across our social networks...and sharing their successes and supporting them in all they do!

Regina Habitat for Humanity 100 Women in 100 Days - Nov. 1 - Feb. 8, 2012
What is 100k in 100 Days? 100k in 100 Days is an initiative being undertaken by a group of exceptional women in Regina. The goal of the group is for 100 women to raise $100,000 in 100 days. $100,000 will cover the costs of materials to build a home for a hard-working family who will put in a minimum of 500 sweat-equity-hours towards the building of their home and then pay an interest-free-mortgage. The interest-free-mortgage will allow them to escape high rent payments and begin saving for their future. Participants in this exciting initiative are encouraged to not only contribute financially to this build but also by volunteering on site as well. Build volunteers need not have experience. Our journeyman carpenters will oversee the project from beginning to end ensuring the family has a solid, well-built home to live in. Teams of five or six volunteers will enjoy time on the job site learning and contributing to the house that will become a dream come true for a family looking for their very own home. If you'd like to be one in a hundred contributors/volunteers please call Trish Bezborotko, Director of Fund Development and Communications, Habitat for Humanity Regina at 522-9700 or email tbez@habitatregina: Cheques can be made payable to Habitat for Humanity Regina, please put in subject line 100 K in 100 Days and mail to 1740 Broder St., Regina, SK S4N 2H7. We can also process your donation on VISA or Mastercard. Please call us at 522-9700 to donate using a credit card.
