If you are here to learn more about the Fig Tree Foundation’s PIE IN THE SKY TRAVEL RAFFLE 2.0, you have come to the right place.
Thanks to the efforts of one of our great volunteers, we recently secured a voucher for free return flights for two from WestJet, It was rewarded as part of Westjet’s program to encourage volunteerism by staff members. (Bravo Christina!)
We have also partnered with a few of our corporate stewards –The Fairmont Banff Springs, Simple Simon Pies, Pipestone Travel, Osteria De Medici Restaurant and 1 UP Print Solutions. We now have THE PIE IN THE SKY TRAVEL RAFFLE 2.0.
With the help of a great team of volunteers, we expect to raise $10,000 by selling all of our raffle tickets. After costs, which are very minimal, the proceeds will go to the Fig Tree Foundation’s Endowment fund and then be used to fund highly effective and sustainable international development projects. We are also hoping to raise public awareness about Fig Tree within the Calgary Community. Please explore the rest of our website, especially the section “About Us”.
Thank you for your interest and support. We have printed just 500 raffle tickets, so your chances are pretty good! Draw time is 1pm on December 31, 2011 at Pipestone Travel Store, Willowpark Village.
Good luck!
