In 2010, a WestJet Fundraiser
In the fall of 2010, WestJet agreed to donate a gift of Two Tickets to Anywhere WestJet Flies, as the prize for a fundraising raffle for CRSS. More than $4000 worth of tickets were sold, and on December 18, the raffle draw was held at MiMi’s House. The winner of the tickets was Roger Mundell. | |
The raffle funds were part of a larger fundraising effort to purchase a snoezelen multi-sensory system for use at MiMi’s House. The entire system, which included a 60″ interactive multi-coloured bubble tube, 200-strand fibre-optic spray, rotating wheel projector and image wheels, sound machine, black light, plasma globe, tactile awareness box, and numerous other sensory exploring objects, cost nearly $10,000. Fundraising was completed in the spring of 2011, and the system was purchased and installed in September. |
