HomeAid of Northern California is targeting a new
fundraising total of $150,000 with its seventh annual trap shoot, 8 a.m.
to 3 p.m. Thursday, Sept 18, at the Livermore-Pleasanton Rod & Gun Club.
The event is supported by the Northern California homebuild
Since the inaugural trap shoot fundraiser in 2002, HomeAid has raised
more than $1 million to help fund the construction of shelters for the
transitionally homeless throughout the San Francisco Bay Area. The 2002
trap shoot comprised of five-person teams was such a booming success
(raising about $75,000) that in each successive year it has grown in
popularity within the Bay Area s homebuilding industry. In 2005 the
event netted nearly $250,000. Despite a softening new-home market in the
region, homebuilders, suppliers and vendors are again stepping up to
support this year s event.
Even in these challenging market conditions, HomeAid is grateful for the
ongoing support of our trade partners and supporter of our signature
fund-raising event, said Julie O Connor, Executive Director for HomeAid.
We hope to achieve our goal of $150,000 for 2008, which will be used to
support our organization and our shelter development program.
