The McAllen North Rotary Club is planning its annual fundraiser called ‘Jamaican Me Crazy’. The event is a Jamaican theme party that includes food, drinks, live entertainment, and a silent auction. The event will be held on Saturday, September 16, 2017, at the Echo Hotel in Edinburg. Over 450 people are expected to attend.
Funds raised from this event will benefit our local community. Last fiscal year our club donated over $39,888 to local charities such as Adoption Awareness, Buckner Children’s Home, RGV Food Bank, Rotary Youth Leadership Awards and the Salvation Army. We also awarded $9,000 in scholarships to graduating seniors from the local McAllen high schools. Since our inception in 1984, the club has raised and donated over $1,000,000 for these purposes.
We are asking for your financial support in the way of auction items or sponsorships. Sponsors will be recognized at the event with a display of their names and logos. The attached form explains the benefits of sponsorship in more detail.
Please note that McAllen North Rotary Club is a 501(c) (3) charitable organization and donations are tax deductible. Our tax ID number is 27-3855943.
