Fun-draisers

When most people think of 'development' and 'fundraising', fun is the last word they think of. But this spring we've taken the 'fun' in fundraising to heart.

In March we hosted our first bar night fundraiser, raising a Toast to Generations Incorporated at Kingston Station. In April, we led a Readathon at the Hale School in Roxbury where the top fundraiser won a bike (left). In May, we hosted an event at the Acton Discovery Museum where we got to play around while we spread the word about Generations Incorporated. And most recently, last week, we hosted our second bar fundraiser, Apres, at Solas Irish Pub (below).

In addition to being successful in the fundraising sense of the word, these events have been a lot of fun. A chance to have a couple of drinks, play a few games, or chat with coworkers, the folks who are coming are having a great time (including me!). So if you haven't been able to join us yet, keep your eyes peeled for our next FUNdraiser. It is sure to be a lot of fun. Oh, and don't forget to get your tickets for our Red Sox Raffle!
