We're happy to announce that this past Thursday, with almost 200 hot dogs consumed and $2,500 bid on silent auction items at their Hots for Humanity event, the Nail Breakers quickly closed the remaining $3,000 gap and exceeded their overall fundraising goal with approximately $6,200 raised for Habitat for Humanity.
We had a fantastic turnout from our neighbors in the downtown Rochester area, including visitors from Kodak, Entercom, Tipping Point Media, Stantec, LaBella Associates, High Falls Business Association, Flower City Habitat for Humanity, and many others.
To everyone who joined us for this event and bought a hot dog (or two or three), or who wrote their names down on a bid sheet, thank you. Your generosity will help to change the lives of a family in our community by giving them a new home, and we think that's pretty amazing.
We'd like to extend a huge thanks to Zweigle's for generously donating almost 500 hot dogs and sausage links to the event, and to Uncle Ralph's Steakout and Barbeque for kindly donating a talented, hard-working grill team to make it all happen. We'd also like to thank all of the area businesses that donated goods and services to our silent auction.
Our team is absolutely thrilled with the event's success, and we hope to continue Hots for Humanity as a fun summertime tradition in our community to help support Habitat for Humanity build projects in the coming years.
