Support your local non-profits at the Alternative Gift Fair in Vernon this Saturday.

The Alternative Gift Fair gives shoppers the opportunity to buy gifts for those in need and a way to support their favourite causes.

Each participating organization offers a variety of meaningful "gifts of help" in price ranges starting as low as $10.

Shoppers will then receive gift certificates and inserts that identify their donations.

The event is at the Schubert Centre from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.
