Hometown for Hunger’s 10th Anniversary fundraiser this Wednesday

Denham Ford and the Community Foundation of the Kootenay Rockies (CFKR) are celebrating the 10th anniversary of their popular Hometown for Hunger fundraiser on Wednesday August 13.

The fun kicks off at 11 a.m. and wraps up at 2 p.m. at Denham Ford’s Cranbrook dealership, with food trucks, activities for kids, the dunk tank, and food-eating contests.

This is a community party with a purpose, raising funds to support the Cranbrook Salvation Army’s local food programs by growing CFKR’s StellerVista Credit Union endowment.

Local celebrities will be taking a turn in the dunk tank to help raise funds to fight hunger in our community. Sven Sloeserwij from Cranbrook Tourism will be diving into the ice-cold water; Genex has thrown their hat into the ring; Kim Levie from the Rockin’ in the Rockies car club is a crowd favourite, and word on the street is that Rene Kowalchuk, Denham Ford’s GM, will take the plunge, if enough donations come through the door.

Denham Ford and StellerVista Credit Union are each generously matching donations up to $1,000.

For more information, please contact Lynnette Wray, CFKR Executive Director: Phone 250-919-9721, Email [email protected].
