Comedy Night Fundraising Event
West Rutland, VT
– The healing powers of laughter were felt in more ways than one on Saturday
night, as the West Rutland American Legion played host to Laugh for the Cure, a
fundraising event for Relay for Life that presented three local comedians and
Lewiston, Maine-based comedian Mark Turcotte.
The three Rutland-based comedians performing on Saturday presented a
range of comedic stylings, from good old-fashioned bathroom humor, to
self-deprecating stories, to clever observational humor and social commentary. www.fundraising-ideas.org

"Week in Paradise" Fundraising Event
Yuma, AZ - Amberly's
Place is again selling raffle tickets for its yearly "Week in
Paradise" fundraiser, offering some lucky winners a trip to locations near
and far as an additional reward for helping to replenish the victim services
agency's emergency fund. The tradition
began just over a decade ago and grew by leaps and bounds as its prize packages
grew and popularity soared, until last year when sales fell well short of
expectations until last-minute publicity and a $30,000 challenge pushed the
total to $88,060, still below the $100,000 mark that had been hit the two
previous years. www.fundraising-ideas.org
