Broker Challenge

Half a million dollars!! That's the potential for a fundraising initiative put on by the Insurance Brokers Association Of Alberta, though the six figure sum of $150,000 is the original objective. 
With 500 Brokers across Alberta and the expectation that each could raise $300, it's perfectly feasible to think that this is an achievable goal.
So, my employer, BlueCircle Insurance is well on their way and have had quite a bit of success, despite being relatively small. To date we're just shy of $800 and still have about 6 weeks to put that total at our self set goal of $1000. If every Brokerage could manage that, you can see how we're optimistic that the IBAA certainly could hand over a half million dollars to our charity of choice and intended recipient, Ronald McDonald House. No matter what we can raise, this money will help that fantastic organization be all the better funded to do what they do when helping families cope with their hospitalized children, a trying time as it is without the worries and financial burdens of having a place to stay that is close to the hospital.  Ronald McDonald House is a "home away from home" and gives parents and siblings accessibility to a sick child in their time of need. 
Kyla, one of the hard working members of The BlueCrew, adds the take of one of our fundraising initiatives to the tally board.
