Preferred Insurance & Partners raised an amazing $37,210 for Childcan at Turkey Bowl 2015, smashing their fundraising goal and previous record.

The Preferred Insurance Turkey Bowl had a small and humble beginning nine years ago as a thank you to business partners. It has since evolved into a huge hospitality, networking and charitable event. The goal for 2015 was to raise $30,000 for Childcan, and thanks to the partnership and generosity of more than 100 business partners, the goal was surpassed and a new record was set at $37,210.

Every year, we dream it bigger and better, and every year we make it happen. The Turkey Bowl is a special day for our business partners, as we invite them to connect with us on a mission to raise money for Childcan, an amazing organization that helps families cope with childhood cancer.

Our biggest transformation came from partnering with BELFOR Property Restoration as our Signature Event Partner. The move has substantially helped take it to another level, and we are very grateful for their continued partnership. Our total raised for the past four years has now surpassed $100,000.

The Turkey Bowl is a fun day with a special purpose, and it is proof that many hands joining together can accomplish something truly outstanding.

The 2015 edition continued with a significant digital presence, which had commenced a year earlier. There were special partner contributions from Boss Hog’s Smokin Chophouse, Holiday Inn & Suites, New Era Graphix, Scherba’s Great Floors, Carr’s Shell and Bloomers at the Market, which certainly made enhancements and are appreciated. We welcomed the Forest City Volleyball Club 17U Girls Green Team as our guest hospitality team for the event. They had a great experience and earned funding for their team through their participation.

All-Star Partners who made special excess donations beyond regular partnership amounts included: Hagerty Classic Car Insurance ($800), CARSTAR London East ($1,000), CARSTAR London West ($1,000), Downtown Auto Glass ($1,000), Enterprise Rent-A-Car ($2,000), and Gore Mutual Insurance Company ($3,000).

We are extremely proud and grateful to have such fantastic partners.

Together, we raised $37,210 in one amazing day!
