As a non-profit charity organization he F. J. Davey Home Foundation relies on fundraising and events to be able to obtain the money needed to support the residents of the F. J. Davey Home. See below some of our most successful fundraisers and events below!
The Grand Parade
In the fall of 2021 we joined force with the Blue Sea Foundation to host the first ever Grand Parade. We had such great support from the community and raised over $20 000 for the F. J. Davey Home. We’re excited to bring the Grande Parade back in 2022. For more information on how you can get involved in the 2022 Grand Parade CLICK HERE.
Greyhound Jersey Draw
You can find us at every Soo Greyhound home game raffling off an exclusive signed player jersey. The jersey draw is our longest running fundraiser and has made significant contributions to the amount of money we’ve been able to raise for the residents of the Davey Home. In 2022 we saw incredible support from the Soo Greyhound fans selling out at every game. We want to extend a special thanks to the Greyhounds staff and fans for helping make the jersey draw such a great experience. #gohoundsgo
Silent Night Gala
The Silent Night Gala helped the F. J. Davey Home Foundation kick off the Christmas season. Unfortunately the pandemic has prevented us from being able to spread Christmas cheer the way we would’ve liked… a big meal with friends and family. Of all the events and fundraiser we’ve run nothing quite matches the Silent Night Gala when it comes to letting the foundation show our appreciation to the great community that surrounds us.
Caribbean Trip Draw
One of our biggest hits has is our trip draw. An all inclusive 7 day cruise for 2 Eastern or Western (winners choice) Caribbean voyage is what awaits the winner of this raffle but don’t fret, because we have cash prizes for our silver and bronze winners. The draw normally held in February has had to be postponed due to the travel restrictions still at play. We can’t wait to bring the Trip Draw back in the future.
