CALGARY, Alberta--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
ENERKNIGHT Media (www.enerknight.com),
a local Calgary Digital Advertising and Marketing agency is holding a
fundraiser which is called the ‘Official Fort McMurray Gala’ to aid the
people of Fort McMurray with the goal of raising $100,000 with the
support of several Calgary businesses and many citizens from the city of
Calgary.
“We realized that many Calgarians want to help, but sometimes feel that
they don’t know which direction is best suited on how to go about giving
back, thus being said – we put together this gala for Calgarians with
immense structure, governance and strategy to come together and raise
money for our fellow Albertans from Fort McMurray where 100% of the
profits will be going directly to the Red Cross of Canada for aid,
relief and rebuilding.” – Zakir I. Hussein, President and CEO,
ENERKNIGHT Media.
The official FortMacGala will take place on June 25th, 2016
at the Telus Convention Centre from 7:00pm until 1:00am. The event is
18+ with a Black Tie theme - which will be a great way for Albertans to
come together in a Cocktail Style Reception with Hors D'oeuvres served
throughout the night as well as a cash bar.
The gala will consist of a show, entertainment, and speeches from fellow
firefighters whom put their lives on the front lines to fight the blazes
of the tragic forest fires.
The evening will also consist of a silent auction with several
businesses that have come forward to donate their silent auction items
where 100% of those proceeds will also be given to the Canadian Red
Cross to aid in the rebuilding of Fort McMurray.
Early-Bird tickets are now sold out, but advanced tickets can still be
