Show Buzz you care

In case you missed it, there is going to be a Buzz Hargrove tribute dinner on June 11, 2008 at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in Toronto. Masters of Ceremonies are the Hon. Bill Davis and Bob White. Dinner co-chairs include the Hon. Frank McKenna (of union-free TD Bank), Frank Stronach (of strike-free Magna), Gerry Schwartz (friend of the Spirit Aero union), Charles Coffey (past executive of union-free Royal Bank), etc., etc.

Being a friend of all Canadians, the following affordable sponsorships are available for purchase (in support of Eva’s Initiatives):

VIP Reception Sponsor: $75,000 (who knew that Mr. Hargrove was a fan of VIPs?)

Platinum Sponsor: $150,000 (already snagged by someone)

Tribute Dinner Head Table Sponsor: $75,000

Tribute Dinner Book Sponsor: $50,000

Gold Sponsor: $50,000

Wine Sponsor: $30,000

Centrepiece Sponsor: $30,000

Entertainment Sponsor: $30,000 (sold out)

Desser Buffet Sponsor: $25,000

Silver Sponsor: $25,000

And if you want to specifically assist the “Buzz Hargrove Youth Training Centre”, there are there sponsorship opportunities to consider:

Grand Reception Foyer: $75,000, or $200,000 for three years

Technologies Training Lab: $75,000, or $200,000 over three years

Life Skills Centre: $75,000, or $200,000 over three years

Leadership Centre: $75,000, or $200,000 over three years

Employment Resource Centre: $75,000, or $200,000 over three years

Foundations of Print Room: $50,000, or $125,000 over three years

Perhaps the Ontario Coalition Against Poverty protestors that trooped around the PATH network earlier this week should head on over to the HQ of the Canadian Auto Workers. Buzz has some serious pull.
