CCC Gnome-ing Fundraiser
April 29 | 8:00 am - May 10 | 5:00 pm MDT
How It Works!
Make a donation, and send a Gnome to visit the yard of your friends, family members, neighbors, or even a local business. Each person the Gnome visits will have the opportunity to choose the Gnome’s next location by paying the price!
Gnome-ing is done in good spirits and is not meant to be mean. The Gnome will hang out in a recipient’s yard for 2 days, then they will mysteriously vanish to visit the next location!
The money raised from this fundraiser stays local and helps us continue to offer our Gap Child Care Scholarship Program, which assists local families in covering the cost of child care.
If you are Gnomed, take a picture and share it with us using the hashtag #CCCGnomed!
Donation Amounts
We have two different options for donations. One is for our classic Gnome and the other is our Jurassic ‘Gnome’, which is a metal dinosaur, donated to us by our friends over at Iron Maiden Welding.
- $150: have a Gnome visit a friends’, family members’, neighbors’ or business’ front yard
- $500: make it more interesting and send a Jurassic ‘Gnome’
Not a fan of Gnomes, but worried your friends will send one your way? No problem, purchase ‘Garden Protection’ for $50 and ensure The Gnome stays out of your yard.
