Orangeville Not-for-Profit Organization on a Mission to Raise Funds for SickKids

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


Orangeville, ON, August 27, 2023 – Driven Living, an Orangeville-based not-for-profit organization, is currently in the final two weeks of its fundraising campaign, the Driven Living Draw for SickKids. This prize draw offers participants a chance to win from a pool of seven exciting prizes. These include a Grand Prize Package featuring a pair of F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix 2023 3-day tickets in the T-Mobile Fan Zone at Sphere and return airfare on Flair Airlines (approximate retail value $7500 CAD), four pairs of return tickets to any Flair Airlines destination (approximate retail value of each individual prize $1200 CAD), and two eBay Gift Cards (value of each individual prize $250 CAD).


Driven Living was founded earlier this year by Eric Kunz, an Orangeville resident. The organization seeks to inspire individuals impacted by rare diseases to live life to the fullest, raise awareness and funds for research, care, and treatment. Kunz, a rare disease patient himself, is also a skilled race car driver in the Sports Car Championship Canada (SCCC), and SickKids has played a crucial role in his personal journey.


Last week, Driven Living collaborated with several Orangeville businesses, extending an invitation to display signs for this SickKids fundraiser. Through the convenient Givergy platform, participants can seamlessly purchase tickets by scanning a QR code on these signs.


J.P. Venditti, the owner of CSN Leggett's Collision, shared his enthusiasm, stating, "We are very happy to support this fundraising cause for an amazing hospital."


In addition to CSN Leggett's Collision, Driven Living is grateful to Deja Vu Diner, Henning Salon, Mochaberry Coffee, Mortgage Architects, Phone Fix Orangeville, Premium Auto Repair, Prime Communications Canada (Rogers authorized dealer), Solar Swim, Sport-Medic Physiotherapy Clinic, Toronto Auto Glass, and Wicked Shortbread, all of which united to display signs in support of the fundraiser.
