Thanks to the generous support of patrons from around the country, CP had a successful Big Give Gage day on Friday, Sept. 10. During the third annual day of online giving CP raised $8,140 passing our $6,000 goal. This year's fundraising project was targeted to replace our over 20 year old light board.
This year more than 60 organizations participated in Big Give Gage, sponsored by the Gage County Foundation. More than $322,000 was raised to support nonprofits throughout Gage county. CP's total put us in 9th place for amount of funds raised during the day, and we had the 8th most donors. This was the most funds CP has raised during the giving day event.
Once again thank you to everyone who donated to help us upgrade our lighting equipment. This campaign targeted just one part of what we plan to eventually be $60,000 in upgrades to our lighting system.
