Greetings!  

The Surrey Foundation is preparing for its first fundraising event in 2011, scheduled to launch in February 2011.  This year's fundraiser will be a unique twist on our typical fundraising events in the past.   Rather than hosting a gala event, we will be inviting supporters of the Foundation to "not attend" our "No-Show" Celebrity Gala.    

We will cordially invite guests to stay at home and enjoy a evening with their family and friends, along with a special gift from their local Boston Pizza, knowing that their tax-deductible contribution to the Surrey Foundation is improving the quality of life for all of Surrey, now and for generations to come.

Each ticket purchased to this celebrity endorsed "No-Show" Gala will be eligible to enter into a raffle draw and participate in an on-line auction to win one of many fabulous items.

As in the past, we are reaching out to the corporate and private sector for support.  We respectfully ask for your help by donating an item or items for our prize draw or on-line auction.  All prizes and auction items will be listed on the "No-Show" Celebrity Gala website with a clickable logo and/or link to the donor's website.

The Surrey Foundation has a long history of supporting a broad range of areas that shape the City we live in, including arts and culture, heritage, youth, education, literacy, and family services.  Since its inception, the Foundation has disbursed over one million dollars to registered charities who help make Surrey a better place to live, work and play.

Please help us continue to make a positive and lasting impact on the quality of community life in Surrey by contributing to the "No-Show" Celebrity Gala.
