‘Soap Suds Challenge’ today in Wallaceburg
Cars in the parking lot at the St. Clair Catholic District School Board’s Catholic Education Centre will have a bit more sparkle following a fundraiser this week in support of the United Way.
Members of Board’s senior administration will be scrubbing and polishing staff vehicles this Friday.
For a $10 donation to the United Way, staff will get a bumper to bumper, rooftop to rubber polish, courtesy of senior administration, that will make their cars shine like they have just driven them out of the showroom.
“Every year, members of our staff right across the district support the United Way organizations of Sarnia-Lambton and Chatham-Kent,” says Deb Crawford, Director of Education.
“We thought having a car wash would be a great way to help boost our contributions for the current campaigns and have some fun at the same time.”
Staff are also invited to make on-going donations through payroll deductions and to contribute to funds for special events, such as casual Fridays.
“The United Way organizations in both ends of our district do so much to support families and youth, which aligns with the mission of Catholic education,” says Crawford.
“We are happy to support these worthwhile organizations.”
The car wash is scheduled to take place at 9 a.m. on Friday, November 2 in the parking lot at the Catholic Education Centre, 420 Creek Street, Wallaceburg.
