Mad Trapper i2P Fundraiser

Mad Trapper i2P Fundraiser

Following the January 28th Atlas Mad Trapper Bushtukah Night Race, the Mad Trapper will be hosting its first annual i2P Fundraiser. This will take place as an auction with all proceeds from donations going to Ray Zahab's Impossible to Possible foundation.

These funds will be used towards sending youth ambassadors on i2P's educational expeditions.

Impossible to Possible aims to Educate, Inspire and Empower youth from around the world.

Donations are now being solicited for this auction.

We are basically looking for new or gently used items (or services) that would still be of value to somebody. All opening bids will start at a minimum bid of at least $20, so we are requesting the donated items be worth at least twice that in their current condition.

Obviously racers participating in the January 28th event are encouraged to bring their donation with them on race day.

However, if you still wish to make a donation but will not be making it to the Mad Trapper event, then donations can be dropped off at the Bike Repair shop at Bushtukah Great Outdoor Gear (203 Richmond Rd, Ottawa) starting January 14th.

Feel free to contact me using the "Contact Us" button on the left of this page if you have any questions.
