The Foundation Perspective
Leadership Dutchess Invites You To 'Come Fly With Us...'
By: Karolyn Osborne
Director, The Chamber Foundation, Inc.
Prior to graduation, each Leadership Dutchess class participates in a 'Leadership Challenge,' a component that began in 2007 in conjunction with several Hudson Valley leadership programs. The goal is to raise money by using creative and unique fundraising techniques that employ all of the lessons learned throughout the student's amazing 10-month journey.
This year’s Leadership Challenge “Come Fly With Us” is a prize contest in which ticket-purchasing participants are eligible to win 12 exclusive prizes including, a trip for two for a five-day, six-night stay at the incredible Casa La Lanchita on the island of Vieques, located just six miles off the southeast coast of Puerto Rico. This bit of paradise offers breathtaking panoramic views, pristine beauty and white sandy beaches.
Tickets are currently on sale and can be purchased at various Chamber events and/or online by clicking here. Only a limited amount of tickets will be sold. The cost of a raffle ticket is only $40 and it will also gain you entry into the May 31 “Bon Voyage” party event at the Dutchess Manor where the winner will be announced. Nosh on delectable hors d’oeuvres, sip on beer, wine and /or champagne while networking with some of Dutchess County’s finest.
Proceeds from this event will benefit The Chamber Foundation, Inc., the Leadership Dutchess Scholarship Program and Rebuilding Together Dutchess County.
