Upper Grand Fundraising Fair 2010

The Upper Grand Learning Foundation (UGLF) hosts our Sixth Annual Fundraising Fair, a free event on Monday April 19, 2010 from 1 - 8 pm at the Royal Brock, Best Western Hotel, Guelph (corner of Stone Road and Gordon.) Our innovative program is designed to help organizations find fundraising opportunities that best meet their needs. Over 100 people came out last year to learn at the free seminars and to meet fundraising service and product vendors with great ideas for raising money for service or charitable organizations. We are especially proud to present mini fundraising seminars again at this year's event; these proved so very worthwhile to attendees in previous years.

Schools, sports groups or organization challenged by the daunting task of finding just the right fundraising idea, product or program, discover the opportunities to be found at our fair. If you attended our events in April 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009, you know the quality and value of our vendors. We know that our attendees discover new, fun and proven fundraising activities.

The fundraising fair features door prizes, free admission and parking and is open to everyone!

Report on Fundraising Fair 2009

The Upper Grand Learning Foundation (UGLF) hosted a successful fundraising fair in April 2009. Many people came out to look over the vendor offerings: fundraising ideas, products and programs. UGLF succeeded by raising funds to support our administrative and operating costs, and we provided area school, sport and service organizations with access to fundraising product vendors. We hope that the success of our first five fairs will encourage more attendees to come out to the next fair in April 2010.
