Recent flooding events have put a huge strain on many businesses in Fenton and surrounding communities. The Fenton Area Chamber of Commerce is committed to providing assistance to these businesses, many who were also affected by the 2015 flooding, through a “Dress Down to Dry Out” flood relief fundraiser. How does the fundraiser work? During the first week of June, June 5th through 9th, participating businesses will choose one day out of the week to have their employees “dress down”, meaning casual attire, for a small monetary donation ($1, $5, etc.). If employees already wear casual attire, participating businesses may choose to host a themed dress day instead: St. Louis Cardinals day, college colors days, Hawaiian shirt day, patriotic colors day, etc.
The Fenton Chamber invites all local businesses to participate in this fundraiser! Upon registering to participate, businesses will nominate a “captain” to oversee donation collection and will also receive a flyer to hang up at their location. This fundraiser is an easy way for area businesses to help raise money and provide assistance to those businesses affected by 2017, and 2015, flooding events. When a business is affected in this capacity, it is not merely structural with the challenge of rebuilding, but it also has a direct impact on employees and, in turn, the community. To register your business as a participant or for additional fundraiser information, please visit www.fentonmochamber.com or contact the Fenton Chamber office directly at 636-717-0200. Thank you in advance for your participation in this fundraiser.
