Don Lawby

Century 21 Canada president Don Lawby is taking the Easter Seals Drop Zone plunge by rappelling down the side of a skyscraper to raise funds for the Easter Seals Kids to Camp program. Despite his confessed fear of heights, Lawby has committed to dropping down the side of an office building in the province where the most money is raised by Century 21 system members (highest amount raised per system member, within a province).

“Children with disabilities overcome challenges every day in their lives, so the least I can do is to overcome my fear of heights” says Lawby.

Century 21 Canada launched the Century 21 Kids to Camp fundraising initiative in 2008. With every $2,100 raised, members are able to send a disabled child to camp. The summer camps have camp fire stories and songs, swimming, kangaroo court and even a climbing wall, high rope course and a giant swing – all fully accessible to kids with disabilities. The facilities are designed to ensure that everyone, no matter their disability, has the support they need to have the time of their lives.
