Final Fundraiser & Community Event

On August 10th I attended my final Osoyoos in town event which also served as my final fundraiser for the British Columbia Ambassador Program.

I hosted a small fundraiser which I called Chelsea's Taste of Osoyoos for a few hours at a New Leaf Tea & Gifts.

During my event I sold entries into my Prize Draw with the Grand Prize being a Two Night Stay in a lake view suite at A Watermark Beach Resort including a $50 Wine Bar gift certificate and wine tasting a local winery.

During my event I also hosted a small loonie auction as well as selling my Home Sunscreen with SPF 15 & home Made Lemon Lip Balm.

As it was a good-bye Party I also had a Good Lark Card for people to sign and I also handed my BC Ambassador Candidacy Business cards out to people.

Near the end of the afternoon I would up buying a round of Tea from A New Leaf Tea & Gifts on me and one couple came up to me to tell me thank you for my random act of kindness and promised to vote for me for Peoples Choice.

I am happy to say that I sold over 160 Raffle tickets for my Prize Draw alone and by the end of the afternoon I had raised an over all total of $1,000 for the British Columbia Ambassador Program since my candidacy had started back in March. A feat which would not have been at all possible without the the warm embrace, kindness and support of my Home town and community of Osoyoos.
