Through a Season of Connection, RFNOW is partnering with local businesses and charities across Manitoba and Saskatchewan to celebrate the communities we proudly serve. Every entry helps support local organizations while giving participants a chance to win great prizes.

Explore the participating communities below and discover the people, businesses, and charities helping make Canada’s Prairies a better place to live, work, and connect. Enter on-site for your chance to win a $500 grocery gift card from the participating store.
