 Roof
Sit 2009 (June 25-27) is designed to raise awareness of the problem of child
abuse and neglect and to raise money to support programs at The
Community Healing Centers that
treat children who have been abused as well as programs that
work to prevent child abuse. The children who receive these
services live right here in our community and need our help.
Thanks to the support and participation of WKFR 103.3 disc jockeys live
on the roof of the Helzberg Diamonds building on
South Westnedge. Their "sit" on the roof helps to raise money
and awareness of the need for prevention and treatment of child
abuse. Through live broadcasts each day and night during Roof
Sit, individuals and businesses make pledges, issue challenges
and relay incredible stories of love and heartbreak all in an
effort to raise money to fight child abuse. People come to the
event site and donate money to kids in need.
Fundraising
Goal for 2009
$111,500.00
Schools
Our local schools play a critical role in raising money for
children in need. In fact, the event is about kids raising money for kids;
and our local schools support the event by providing the opportunity for
youth to participate as a school project. There are countless ways schools
can participate including: coin collections, sponsoring a car wash,
collecting pop cans, pumping gas for tips at our participating Shell
stations, or hosting a fund raising event at their school. Big or small,
all donations help to raise money by kids for kids. Support packages
including posters and signage is available upon request.
