Posted On: 02/09/2015
Taking part in non-profit organization programs is just one of the things we love to do to show pride in our community. Having a mode of transportation is just one of the steps to having a successful fundraiser or function. Here’s a look into one of the fundraisers we helped sponsor last year at the Winnipesauke Playhouse in Meredith, New Hampshire.
In October of last year, the Lakes Region Shuttle Service helped sponsor the “We Care” program to fundraise for the Temple B’nai Israel synagogue and the Lakes Region Community Services (LRCS): “one of 10 designated Area Agencies in New Hampshire that provides community-based services to individuals with developmental disabilities or acquired brain disorders, and their families” (lrcs.org). The program was hosted at the Winnipesauke Playhouse in Meredith during the spring and the fall where two concerts were held to support the synagogue.
The fall fundraiser featured a band out of Concord called the Freese Brothers Big Band. The band plays big band and swing classics from the 1940s including “Take the A Train” and “Alright, OK, You Win.” The Freese Brothers Band, the Winnipesauke Playhouse, and the Lakes Region Community Services are all non-profit organizations that benefitted from the event. The temple raised $16,000 in its pursuit and donated $4,300 of the net proceeds to the Lakes Region Community Services!
We were so happy to help sponsor this event and look forward to helping out again in 2015! Keep reading our Travel Blog to learn about other events we’re sponsoring to get the most out of your New Hampshire entertainment experience!
