Matching Dollar Challenge
North Norfolk hosted a Matching Dollar Challenge in Austin
The North Norfolk Foundation’s 1st Matching Dollar Challenge was a tremendous success! Event “challengers” from Austin Community Centre, Valley View Bible Camp, North Norfolk Childcare Centre, and Sprucedale Industries each presented information about their current projects and initiatives.
We were OVERWHELMED by the evening’s generous community donations which totaled $21 150! The Foundation is honoured to match the evening’s donations and distribute the funds as follows:
Austin Community Centre = $12 255 for their Baseball Diamond Revitalization Project
Valley View Bible Camp = $8440 for their Go Cart Project
North Norfolk Childcare Centre = $8555 for the Austin Daycare Project
Sprucedale Industries = $9825 for their Kitchen Appliances and Supplies
Thank you so much to everyone who joined us this evening!
