Baton Rouge “Red Nose” Day May 9, 2008
Category: Baton Rouge Events
So, when I say “red nose” what do you think of? Maybe, Rudolph the red nose reindeer? What else? Mmm, maybe someone that has a bad cold! Kachoo! Or, what about a happy clown? Don’t most clowns have red noses? Speaking of red noses, guess what is just around the corner? You guess it! The Baton Rouge “Red Nose” Day! What is this red nose thing you speak of?
Well, “Red Nose Day” is a day set aside for everyone to come out and support the children. It’s actually a foundation that was started by McCains Children’s Developmental Center. It’s basically a fundraiser to support all of the services that the McCains Children’s Developmental Center provides. It will be a day devoted to fun and laughter.
Did you know that over 100 companies and schools volunteer for “Red Nose Day” last year? They volunteered by going to this fun day and by buying t-shirts, teddy bears, neckties, red noses and more. They raised over $38,000. Wow! Isn’t that awesome? Do you want to sponsor “Red Nose Day”? Sponsorships are available for levels of $1000, $2500 and $5000. If you are a sponsor, your logo will go on all of the “Red Nose Day” items mentioned above.
Where and when is the “Red Nose Day”?This fundraiser will be held at a special event downtown during the Life at Five celebration. It will be at the Galvez Plaza on North Blvd. Come and join the fun! There will be raffle ticket drawings for great prizes. Get ready for May 9th, put on your red nose and go downtown and support our children.
