I don't do Facebook, but I believe there's an Okanagan Reefers community. That might be the best way to find any hobbyists in the area that have sand or rock for you. As you likely know already, you only need a few scoops of sand or a couple of rocks from someone's running system to kick start your own. So called live sand from a store that is sealed in a bag is unlikely to have anything useful in it sitting on a shelf for who knows how long. After that, you really only need dry rock, so the Fiji Crete dry stuff would be a good option.
I'd contribute to your cause with some sand, but I'm away Saturday, not sure about Sunday schedule.
