Children’s Foundation fundraiser gala has tropical theme this year

The Children’s Foundation Gala wants to sweep guests away to the tropics this year.

The fourth annual Around the World fundraiser is on Oct. 23 at the Italian Canadian Club.

This year, guests will feel the warmth of the Caribbean dur­ing an evening of tropical lux­uries.

The gourmet dinner will feature dishes highlighting some of the best tropical in­gredients including mango and sweet potatoes – plus a Pina Colada dessert.

Entertainment will include Traces steel drum band and a Caribbean Fusion dance per­formance, along with prizes – including the grand prize – a trip for two to St. Lucia.

Tickets are $100 per person and are now available for purchase through the Child­ren’s Foundation website at www.childrensfoundation.org or by contacting the               office at 519-826-9551 or info@childrensfoundation.org.

 Throughout the evening  the foundation’s recognition awards will be presented in­cluding:

– corporate supporter of the year;

– volunteer of the year; and

– community champion.

The Children’s Foundation contributes to the healthy growth and development of child­ren and youth in need in Guelph and Wellington County, by funding their participation in enrichment activities.
