• Vancouver Timeraiser Story

  Date: 2009.10.02 | Category: Timeraiser | Response: 0

  Last Wednesday, the 23rd of September, I was talking with Jaeny Baik from CBC about the upcoming Timeraiser, and she asked me something to the effect of, “So the night of the Timeraiser must just be the ultimate treat for you?” Without downplaying how exciting Levitra prix pharmacie

  I should mention though, that the 2nd Vancouver Timeraiser was super successful, and we’re thrilled with Vancouver’s response to the program. Purchase viagra online Viagra for women A quick recap of some of the results:

  • Over 380 people attended with over 150 participants making ‘the pledge’
  • 5, 355 volunteer hours pledged, of which 60% was pledged by art winners
  • 20 of the 25 pieces of artwork went for their maximum bid
  • Over $15,000 was invested in the careers of local emerging artists,
  • 20 artists were in attendance, talking to participants about their work,
  • 2008 art winners received their artwork on stage
  • Personnel from both online social media as well as traditional media attended
  • Timeraiser sponsors in attendance: WestJet, PWC, Bull Frog, Molson, McConnell Foundation, RedBull, RBC, TD Canada Trust. Viagra levitra

  But back to my point: I do want to share how inspiring it is to hear people relate, as a 2009 Vancouver Art Winner did, “I have been thinking about volunteering for so long, just never really knew how to start…now I’m super excited to get going on my pledge and I already know of some organizations that I want to work with!”

  I also received a very nice email from artist Lisa Ochowycz:

  “I really feel that Timeraiser is a “win win win win” event. Artists, NGO’s and Volunteers all win and, most importantly, the Community wins – dynamic, engaged, and enthusiastic individuals directly contributing to its vibrancy. Viagra alternatives Wow! Who knew one event could do all that!”

  And in my new digs at the Volunteer Vancouver, I was even lucky enough to overhear (I was not eavesdropping!) a Timer Viagra bestellung

  So Jaeny is right, being at the Timeraiser is super fun and there are always so many interesting people with whom to chat. Levitra pill And it’s also awesome to see how excited our volunteers were to see the result of their hardwork – people like Jessica Evans who is the rockinest social media volunteer ever, Holly Sawchuk whose event planning skills found a rad place for the Kick Off and Neighbourhood Day, Michael Natyna who was integral throughout the year working with agencies and Ryan Picklyk and Ainslie Muzzin who used their art passions to help put together a great portfolio of artwork.

  In the end, after the Timeraiser event, it’ s the Timerai Kauf von viagra ser program that is most exciting. Online levitra Viagra sale It’s watching individuals’ civic footprints grow, and foreseeing how Vancouver’ s civic footprint will ultimately grow. Prospecto levitra
