On Thursday December 4th, CTV Calgary and Energy 101-5 will be holding a radiothon at the Golden Acre Garden Centre from 9am-9pm for the YWCA "Give the Gift of Safety" campaign. The main objective, is to raise much needed funds for the YWCA Transitional Housing Facility (Mary Dover House) in Calgary.
Over the past couple of weeks, Energy 101-5 and CTV staff, as well as local celebrities have been busy making wreaths at Golden Acres. These wreaths will be auctioned off with proceeds to the YWCA Mary Dover House.
Tonight, Meg Tucker (of the Freeway and Meg Morning Show), our Goodwill Ambassador, Carlos and myself made an "Energy" Wreath. Our dear Spanish friend Carlos, had no idea what a wreath was....infact, he confided to Meg that he thought we were making a "reef"! Ha! We think the wreath turned out beautifully...and hope you might think so too and bid on it, on December 4th!!
The Mary Dover House is a second stage shelter and home for up to 90 women and their children who've been left homeless from a crisis situation or to escape domestic violence. It takes $100 a day to keep a bed open for a woman and her children.
Again, on December 4th, we'll be encouraging you to call or drop off your donation!! More details on "Give the Gift of Safety", can be found on our radio station website, Energy1015.com!!
