4th Annual Brick by Brick Charity Dinner and Silent Auction

Our iGEM team is hosting the 4th annual Brick by Brick event aimed at giving back to the community that has supported us throughout the iGEM season. Brick by Brick is a silent auction and charity dinner that will be held on November 15, 2014 at the James Foster Penny building in Lethbridge, AB. All proceeds will be donated to 5th on 5th Youth Services, a local non-profit organization that has been in the news recently due to a funding crisis.

5th on 5th Youth Services is a non-profit organization that offers a variety of programs free of charge to youths aged 15 to 30. 5th on 5th is one of Southern Alberta’s most prominent organizations in aiding youth to become productive members of the community. In general, they support youth in the areas of academic, career, and social development as well as gaining employment. You can visit their website http://youth.ab.ca/ to learn more about the services that 5th on 5th Youth Services provides and their funding crisis.

Tickets for Brick by Brick are $50 or $350 for a table of 8. Tickets for the event can be obtained or any donations can be made by contacting the Lethbridge iGEM team at uleth.igem@gmail.com or 5th on 5th Youth Services at info@youth.ab.ca.

We thank you for your support,

Lethbridge iGEM Team
