We are reaching out to seek your support for our squadron's upcoming fundraising efforts. 80% of our operating budget relies on the fundraising efforts of our squadron and your involvement is crucial to our success. This year, our dedicated Squadron Sponsoring Committee has organized a diverse series of fundraisers designed to have a little something for everyone. Your participation and support in these events will make a significant difference, ensuring that we continue to provide valuable experiences and opportunities for our cadets. We look forward to working together to achieve our goals and appreciate your commitment to our cause.
We are asking each family to provide three $100 volunteer bond payments Cash is preferred but three post-dated cheques in the amount of $100 each, made payable to 287 Beaumont Air Cadet Squadron Sponsoring Committee, dated May 31, 2025 are also acceptable. Please ensure you include your cadet(s)’ name in the memo section of the cheque.
For each volunteer activity you participate in, one volunteer bond payment will be returned to you (or shredded depending upon your indicated preference) up to a total of three.
