June 23, 2025 - 4:00pm
Despite a drizzly start, the skies cleared and the community spirit shone bright at the City of Saskatoon’s 49th Annual Civic Pancake Fundraising Breakfast on Thursday, June 19! Thank you to everyone who came out to support the United Way of Saskatoon & Area.
We’re proud to announce that our 49th Annual Civic Pancake Breakfast raised $10,594.18 (after expenses) for United Way Saskatoon & Area.
Pancake Breakfast results year over year;
Total number of breakfast tickets sold in 2025: 1,044
Total number of breakfast tickets sold in 2024: 1,344
Total number of breakfast tickets sold in 2023: 1,289
(Note: Tickets in 2024 and 2023 were priced at $7)
Paying it forward with kindness
Thank you for your generosity, Saskatoon, you paid it forward and purchased 115 Act of Kindness tickets! Saskatoon City Employees Credit Union and the City brought back the Act of Kindness Ticket board, allowing attendees and non-attendees to purchase extra breakfast tickets that allowed more people in our community to enjoy a warm breakfast and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether used or unused, every dollar from these tickets goes directly to United Way Saskatoon & Area.
Last year, the City’s 48th Annual Civic Pancake Breakfast tally ended with a record-breaking final donation (revenue less expenses) to the United Way Saskatoon & Area of $13,471.50.
The City of Saskatoon extends a grateful thank you to our valued breakfast sponsors listed below - we could not hold this important fundraising event without their generous support. Thank you to all for making our important community fundraiser another great success!
