The Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB) raised just over $6,000 for KidSport B.C. at the 2014 President’s Cup Golf Tournament.
Gary Gray, VIREB past-president, presented a cheque for $6,073 to Ron Doetzel, an active KidSport B.C. volunteer and representative for the organization’s Port Alberni chapter. The money raised will be distributed among four of KidSport’s five Vancouver Island affiliates.
“Too often, families are unable to afford the costs of sport registration fees. As a result, kids are left on the sidelines,” says Doetzel. “KidSport helps by issuing grants to cover the cost of registration fees for a season of sport. In the Port Alberni chapter alone, we’ll help 200 kids play sports this year.”
