Scona Initiative Legacy

Scona Initiative helped us take on a major challenge: building a long-term walk-in cooler dedicated to root vegetables

Living out their motto, “As One Who Serves,” Strathcona High School and their community raised the necessary funds for a vital new capital project: an industrial long-term storage cooler! Thanks to a successful 20-hour bike-a-thon, the project is now complete.

This specialty cooler will preserve the abundance of our communities fall harvest. Locally grown produce such as potatoes, carrots, and onion can now be kept fresh through late winter. It will also provide essential storage for fresh donations year-round. This cooler is a lasting legacy from the students of Strathcona High School for our community.

Special thanks to the Scona Initiative Leadership Class of 2026, who made it all possible!
