Fund A Need
Fund-A-Need: Raise your paddle!
This year’s Fund-a-Need paddle raise is in support of the new TRU Wildfire: Centre for Wildfire Research, Education, Training, and Innovation.
What is a paddle raise?
The fund-a-need paddle raise is like an auction, but everyone wins, because everyone gives!
Each guest will have a numbered paddle. The auctioneer will start the bidding high. Everyone that raises their paddle at that level pledges to give at that level. The bidding continues until the needed amount of funds has been raised!
This year you have the opportunity add your fund-a-need gift at the time of your ticket purchase. If you are purchasing a table as part of a company, you have the option to give on behalf of your company.
Fund-a-Need gifts are eligible for a charitable tax receipt.
