Jail N Bail FUNdraiser for Local Youth Club
October 2008
It started when Bonnyville REALTOR® Iris Scherger, also a Board Member of the Bonnyville Youth Club, realized an opportunity to help. Fundraisers had come and gone - the new building was complete but then there was a shortfall in programming dollars. With her plan in place, Royal LePage Northern Lights Realty agreed to sponsor this much needed fundraiser. The team at Northern Lights Realty promoted and participated, along with the Boys and Girls Club youth & volunteers, RCMP officers and the local radio station personalities. “It was a lot of work; organizing, advertising, forms, phone calls . . . but WOW it all came together and it was fun!” And FUNdraising it was - $25,000 worth of fun for the Youth Club to use and continue operating as if no threat was ever there. REALTORS® are supporters of our community and it shows over and over again – it’s great! “Helping You Is What We Do”.
