Big Success for “Chalk up for a Cause” Fundraiser Event at Felt
On Saturday, November 3 the SoRewarding Crew arrived at Felt Billiards in Englewood, Colorado setting up decorations, raffle prizes and t-shirts to prepare for a fun day fundraising. Chalkboard signs throughout the room with sayings like, “Party for a Purpose,” set the tone for the 4-hour event. The crew was on a mission to raise money for the Billiard Education Foundation (BEF) and that’s exactly what they did.
The company’s unique business model combines party-goers and venues with nonprofits to create a win-win-win situation for everyone. At this event, a $15 ticket got patrons two drinks, chips & dips, free pool, a pair of complimentary movie passes (courtesy of Southglenn Stadium 14 in South Denver), and a chance at some exclusive drawings. The profit from the ticket sales is then shared between the venue, SoRewarding, and the nonprofit.
Many of the BEF junior players were present to challenge the adults on the pool tables and the event also introduced a lot of new faces to Felt and to the billiard community. SoRewarding kicked off the spirit of giving with a generous donation of $500. Between the ticket sales, raffle sales, and donations, the day brought in $1,000.
“On behalf of Felt and the Billiard Education Foundation, we’re thrilled with the event’s turnout and everyone’s kindness. SoRewarding.com is doing some really amazing things in the Denver metro area and I hope more people get involved,” said Samm Diep-Vidal, Executive Director for the BEF.
“SoRewarding is dedicated to giving back to local non-profit organizations like the Billiard Education Foundation and we love being able to do this through our RewardingCrew events! This event could not have been possible without the helpfulness of the Felt staff and the generous patrons who came out for this wonderful event! This event was just another great way to meet new people in Denver and raise money for great local cause,” said Kerstan B. Saylor, SoRewarding Event Coordinator.
