WHAT IS IT? An EASY way to earn money!
Anyone can join the 5k walk and fundraise for their group
Raise money for your group by collecting pledges
for the Coquitlam Optimist Club. The sharing
benefit -‐ your group gets back 75% of the funds you
collected! How good is that??!!
We provide
the management, signage,
marked walk route around Mundy park and registration onsite as well as food post event. As a note, groups
can walk in their own city as long as you register
your group.
If you participate remotely/virtually from a distance, you can email your scanned
master pledge form -‐ not necessary
to be there on the Walk Day (November
19th, 2023). To organize transfer
of fund, contact
Al at Alkersey777@gmail.com.
YOUR group receives a cheque for 75% of the money you raised!
The 25%, after expenses, supports
other Optimist Club Community Service
Projects such Youth
sports groups, food banks, breakfast programs for schools and others. This year, the net proceeds
will be donated
to a group decided by the
Optimist Club Committee.
