Hang Ya Boss Out to Dry 2018 !
It's on Again !
This year our target is to raise $40,000 and with your help, this can be achievable. The more you raise for the Hospice the better because you get the opportunity to host next year’s event at your place of Business as well as going in the draw to win a weekend away just for being a participant.
This event is a major fundraiser for the Toowoomba Hospice who provides free palliative care for the terminally ill of Toowoomba and surrounding areas and relies on the local community for support. Just another fun way to raise money for a local charity who supports your local community!
On the day you will be placed in a Cherry Picker or Scissor Lift and raised up into the air. To come down, you must at least secure $2000 from your family, business associates and friends - $200 from 10 contacts or $100 from 20 contacts.
