Hosting an amazingly effective fundraiser takes a team.
When the opportunity to host a fundraiser for a local nine year old cancer patient presented itself, the team JUMPED at the opportunity. Converting the Auto Collision Shop into an event space hosting more than 225 people and then back to a functioning auto collision shop in a 24 hour period takes a well thought out plan and a group of dedicated individuals. With the support of our AMAZING comunity we were ablate raise more than FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS for this little girl and her family. While the check went directly to her, we think we were the lucky ones that evening.
