On Sunday (mar 21st) , we completed our Beer/Bottle Drive with amazing results. With the whole family involved we watched the Bottles and Beer cases grow and grow. At times, I thought the tires on the trailer were going to burst! The turn out from our Family, Neighbours and our Neighbourhood was overwhelming. It really brought forth the meaning of "Paying it Forward" , not only for ourselves but also for our neighbours as well . So many of you commented on what a wonderful idea this was, with the proceeds going to The Durham Humane Society Most of us are aware of the Humane Society being burnt down not to long ago. The new building is to start construction in Apr. this year. The new building will be near the intersection of Thickson RD. and Wentworth St E. in Whitby. Our Thanks and appreciation go out to our Family Lisa and Jeff, Gail and John, Cheryl and Steve. To our Friends and Neighbours Shannon and Daniel (Daniel Co. owner of APOM ( Home Inspections), Courtney and Chris, Zack and Laura, Kathleen, Wendel, Betty, Sandy at ( Durham Humane Society), Cindy and Vera at ( The BEER/Distribution Center ) and also our thanks to the Weddingsaviours for reigniting the phase "Paying it forward " . The Humane Society is thank full.
We raised a whopping $216.20 . Thanks again from our hearts.
Lindsay and I topped it up to an even number of $225.00. ( 2 bricks with a phase and engraved , $100 each. $25 was a straight donation)
From the first pic (of us folding the fliers) to the last pic (of Lindsay and Braxton with Katie and Nicholas handing the money over to Sandy), this whole Fundraiser was excellent all around.
