The Kiwanis Club of Richmond just completed their annual fundraiser that serves a two-pronged approach of enriching the lives of children and fundraising for thee Virginia Voice.
This year the club raised several thousand dollars to help send more than 200 inner-city youth from Church Hill Activities and Tutoring, Intercept Youth and United Methodist Family Services to a Richmond Flying Squirrels baseball game on a fireworks night. Some of the participants got to throw out a first pitch and participate in other on-field promotions. Some of the groups reporting taking several children who were making their first trip to a baseball game. Thank you to CHAT for the pictures provided in this post.
The club solicited donations from members and local businesses to purchase tickets for the baseball game with the leftover proceeds to benefit the Virginia Voice, an organization that supports the print handicapped.
We appreciate all of the help of those that helped raise money and to get children to the baseball game for a memorable night.
