Apr 24, 2018 | Fundraiser, Kids Can Fly News, Midnight Movie Marathon
We are thrilled to announce that this year’s Midnight Movie Marathon was our most successful so far! It was a sold out event with 790 in attendance. As a result, and incredible $18,700 was raised!
The line up was long with many patient movie goers waiting to get in.
Even though there were more people than ever before, the event went off without a hitch and everyone had a fantastic time!
We would like to send a huge thank you to Mike Cripps, manager of Galaxy Cinemas Brantford and his amazing staff who worked tirelessly to ensure this event is a success.
This event would not be possible without the helps of our incredible volunteers who donate their time to events such as this because they believe in the work of Kids Can Fly.
Billboards around Brantford helped spread the word of this event thanks to Findlay Law and we really appreciate their support of this as well as many of our other events.
Finally, we would like to thank everyone who attended the event and showed their support and cooperated to make this event safe and fun for everyone who attended!
We can not wait for next year!
