Roy Financial Mayor's Walk for Charity
The 11th Annual Event is scheduled for Saturday, June 18, 2011 at 9:30am in St. Albert. A 3km walk or 8km run ensures that everyone can participate in this fun family event. The Event takes place behind St. Albert Place at 5 St. Anne Street. Registration begins at 8:00am in the foyer of St. Albert Place.
The idea of an all-agency walk/run was formulated in the hope of helping the community become more involved in raising essential funds for local charitable organizations. As a result of several generous sponsors including our title sponsor Roy Financial all costs associated with the event are covered.
Highlights of the event include;
- A chance to win a Grand Prize: $1000.00 Gift Certificate from Airline Ticket Centre for each $150.00 that you raise in pledges.
- The top three individuals who raise the most pleges will win a prize.
- A gift for the first 50 individuals that register that have raised over $1000.00
- No registration fees.
- 100% of all pledges raised are returned to the Charities registered with the event.
Roy Financial Services Inc. is once again the major sponsor of the event. Dan Roy, CEO of Roy Financial Services Inc., says:
"What a great opportunity for businesses to get more involved in the community. I am very excited about supporting this event, and I think the walk is a great way to continue something special…assisting the ongoing funding needs of charities".
Other sponsors include: The St. Albert Gazette and the City of St. Albert
This event is the only one in St. Albert that enables all charities to participate and fundraise together. Collectively it has the ability to impact the community as a whole. Participants can choose to support as many of the charities registered for the event as they like and those charities will receive 100% raised. Join us on June 18, 2011 to Cultivate the Charities in our Community.
