Sundance Vacations Make a Difference Day Results
Sundance Vacations successfully raised $2830 for Habitat for Humanity during our participation in Make a Difference Day. Several Sundance Vacations’ employee volunteered to build a home in downtown Wilkes Barre. In addition to the volunteers who dug ditches and carried construction debris, many employees made a difference by selling tickets for $5 to win an excess inventory vacation.
The funds raised in each office will be sent directly to the Habitat for Humanity that is local to that area. The winner of the excess inventory week was Leona Dworchaek from the Shamokin area. The employee who sold the most tickets was Pam Fantaskey. Pam also won an excess inventory vacation for raising the most funds.
We also want to express our gratitude to the entire staff who helped make this charity event a big success. We will enroll our “event” in the Make a Difference contest. If our charity event is chosen as the winner, we will get $10,000 from Newman’s Own Salad Dressing to donate to Habitat for Humanity.
We will participate in the Make a Difference Day again next year. We will be looking for bigger volunteer opportunities for next year. Send in your ideas.
