TRAILS FOR LIFE FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN
CAMPAIGN OBJECTIVES
In February of 2017, Wostawea launched its ambitious Trails For Life Fundraising Campaign with three objectives:
1. enhance trail building,
2. enhance trail grooming
3. enhance ski inventory, outreach and infrastructure
CAMPAGIN GOALS EXCEEDED: $154, 269 RAISED
A goal of $150,000 was established to support these objectives. Over a seven month period, Campaign volunteers mobilized and reached out to members, the business community, and local service clubs and organizations for financial support.
Wostawea is grateful to the 178 donors who collectively contributed $154,269 to the Trails For Life Campaign. Table 1 highlights fundraising goals and accomplishments.
STATUS OF TRAILS FOR LIFE PRIORITIES
With Trails For Life funding, Wostawea has been advancing the following priorities and initiatives.
THANK YOU WOSTAWEA TRAIL BUILDERS - $50,000 DONATION
A key component of the campaign’s success was the engagement of five local businesses. These five businesses, known as Wostawea’s Trail Builders, include Envirem Organics, Charmac, Hogan Paving, Mira Construction and Monteith’s Underground Services.
These community-minded businesses collectively donated $50,000 to the Trails For Life Campaign, providing Wostawea with financial support that enabled the club to partner with the City of Fredericton in the purchase of a Snowcat groomer for the Killarney Lake Park ski trails. This development has been a true game changer for the club and skiers of the region.
