J.T. Clark Family Foundation’s ‘$10,000 challenge gift’ created the momentum necessary to help The Jackson Wright Youth Fund – FHS Bleachers Fundraiser surpass their $60,000 goal this year.
As featured on the Fredericton Community Foundation website:
“We are excited to share that our goal to raise $60,000 has been achieved, thanks to the generosity of so many caring people and community-minded businesses. In fact, together we have surpassed $60,000 in the past week, thanks in part to the J.T. Clark Family Foundation’s ‘$10,000 challenge gift’ that created the momentum necessary to reach our goal. Funds raised beyond the goal will be used to help upgrade the FHS main gym score table, which, like the bleachers, is in need of replacement.
To everyone who contributed: THANK YOU! We are grateful for your love, support, and continued commitment to community sport. Thank you all for helping to build upon Jackson’s legacy. It’s amazing what can be acheived when we all work together towards a shared goal.”
