Register now: BIG Pursuit for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Red Deer

Mar 16, 2022 | 2:12 PM

We’re Back … Bigger and Better. The 2022 BIG Pursuit campaign starts on Tuesday, March 15 and concludes on BIG Pursuit event day on Sunday, May 1, 2022. This is the primary annual fundraising event in support of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Red Deer and District.

Participate as an individual or get a group of family, friends or co-workers to join you. Simply collect pledges during the six-week campaign and join us on BIG Pursuit Day to hunt for the Golden Keys located somewhere in Red Deer. The more funds raised the more clues you get. The location can be solved using a minimum of one to a maximum of seven clues combined with some creative thinking.

“Fundraising has been challenging for the past few years. Despite those challenges the agency has been able to adapt and ensure kids continue to be connected to caring mentors,” states John Johnston, Community Engagement Manager, Youth HQ. “A special thanks to our friends at Servus Credit Union for their continued support and belief in our efforts to support children and families throughout Red Deer and central Alberta.”

If you’re looking to spend a Sunday afternoon solving some clues in search of the Golden Keys and making a difference … for kids’ sake, check out the BIG Pursuit. There are more than 60 children in Red Deer looking for a caring mentor and someone to look up to. Get involved, ignite potential and be the reason a child succeeds.
