KICKS Fundraiser Draws Media/Pro Soccer: Sanaldo #25

What a day for a Fundraiser! Thanks to the efforts of a dedicated group of volunteers, the First Annual KICKS Fundraiser this Sunday was a huge success! The event drew media attention from Channel 6, Action News and we even landed a professional soccer player from The Philadelphia Kixx, #25 Sanaldo (Goalie) who took shots on the dunk tank, played skills competitions with the kids and gave out prizes. Big thanks to The Philadelphia Kixx, and especially to Sanaldo for dedicating time for our fundraiser. Good luck this year, Sanaldo!

Also big thanks to our Platinum Sponsors of the event: NARS- North American Risk Services (www.narisk.com) and G&G Underwriters (www.GGund.com) for making this event possible.

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the help of our volunteer staff, who did everything from administer games, collect donations, face painting, filming, organizing and especially- dunking. Great thanks guys and girls!

I’ve uploaded some photos below and will have another batch up tomorrow that really capture the event. Thanks to all who participated, attended, donated and assisted in making this First Annual Fundraiser possible. We look forward to reaching our goal of $50,000 for next years’ KICKS Project.

Best Wishes!
KICKS
