Together, Sponsors, Clients, Greco Schools and friends helped raise $60,000 for the Foundation To Fight Obesity in Children. It was a fun and fancy evening with guests dressed to the nines and ready to bid and support kids and their community!

Mrs. Laureen Harper, MP Pierre Poilievre and Mayor Watson also attended. Several Ottawa Senators and their wives joined in the fun, donating signed jerseys for the auction and a special cheque presentation by Popeye himself with an additional $4971.

A special Thanks to Bell Media’s Graham Richardson and Kurt Stoodley for MCing as well as Stuntman Stu for his suave auctioneering skills!

We would like to thank our Corporate Partners; Popeye’s Health Supplements, Minto, Jason Shinder, CanvasPop, GRC Architects, Engel & Associates, Kelly Santini, Deloitte, Preston Hardware

This year The Foundation has committed $10,000.00 to Holy Spirit School in Stittsvile and $25,000.00 to Ottawa Community Housing (Carson’s Rd Re-Development)

This money will be spent on outdoor playgrounds for the kids. 6 guests from the Carson Community were generously hosted by GRC Architects.

Thanks also to our team of volunteers! Arlene, Karen, Michele, Sean, Savannah, Dave, Carolyne and Miriam.
