Big Band, Big Generosity!

What a great night! Thanks to Keith Fraser and the Big Band of the Greater Victoria Concert Band for fantastic night. We were literally dancing in the aisles … and that was before we found out how much we raised!

Our donations at the door and the refreshment stand (thanks 4th Bay to Bay Brownies and Sparks!) brought in a whopping $1,423.40!

Add to that total the matching contribution from Raymond James, Ltd, and an additional $5,000 in support from them, and that makes for a successful night!
