Janet Mackenzie auctions off a cakeThe Red & White Ball which took place on February 15 was a huge success with 104 people in attendance. The event raised over $18,000 for the Rotary Foundation which helps fund our humanitarian activities, from local service projects to global initiatives. 
 
I'd like to thank all of the individuals and businesses that donated to the event. Your donations not only help the community of Terrace, but also communities all over the world who are struggling with poverty, war, clean water, child and maternal health along with a multitude of other issues.
 
Thank you to everyone who attended and opened their wallets to support the cause.
 
Last but not least, I'd also like to thank the organizers -- you did an awesome job! Janet Mackenzie, Rich Toomey, Sabrina Moniz, Lynn Gascon and Liz Smaha all worked tirelessly to make this event a success. 
 
Rotary helps make Terrace and the world a better place and I couldn't be prouder to call myself a Rotarian.
