Fundraising Drag Races
Fundraising is such an important way for non-profit organizations, such as ourselves, to gain funds needed to purchase items that our operational budget may not cover. Our Board Vice-President, James Shields, understands how important these fundraising dollars are for KCC, so he refused to let the challenges of 2020 get in the way of the annual drag race. While the races had to look different this year -- no crowds to cheer the drivers on, no KCC staff to help out, and none of our families in attendance, he didn’t let that stop him, and his hard work paid off, as they were a HUGE success!!
We raised $8,500 at the adult race hosted on July 4th, and another $3,000 at the Kids Racing For Kids event hosted on August 29th.
We would like to recognize James and thank him for all his hard work and dedication to make these races happen! We would also like to send a big thank you to all of the participants, volunteers, and supporters. We couldn’t have done this without you! We are so very grateful and want you to know that the funds you helped raise will allow us to continue to support our families by providing the best possible respite experience for our children, who we care so much about!
From all of the staff at KCC, THANK YOU, and cheers to another GREAT year of races!
