Chong’s Corporation is a Green Gala major sponsor
In support of island conservation and MINA’s ongoing work, Chong’s Corp. recently made a generous donation to MINA’s upcoming event, The Green Gala. Their contribution of $1,000 adds them to the list of major sponsors for this annual fundraiser, which will be held on Friday, Sept. 19, 2014.
“We are very lucky to have the growing support of our island’s business community,” said Brooke Nevitt, MINA’s interim executive director. “Chong’s Corp.’s donation demonstrates their commitment to our organization and our work.”
The leading conservation nonprofit organization in the Commonwealth, MINA has successfully implemented many projects, including the Obyan Rehabilitation Project, the Teacher Environmental Camp, the Marine Debris Prevention program, and the Tasi Watch Project. The organization is supported by project grants and from generous contributions from local businesses and community members.
In order to continue its efforts to preserve and protect the CNMI’s fragile environment and biodiversity, MINA is seeking the community’s participation in the Green Gala event. In addition to lively entertainment, dinner and a variety of beverages, the Green Gala will feature brief highlights from MINA’s projects, a silent auction, and, many other activities that promise a memorable evening.
Last year’s Green Gala was sold out, so organizers are encouraging those who plan to attend to buy their tickets early.
Tickets for the Green Gala event can be purchased at the MINA Office in Gualo Rai or from any of the volunteer Board members.
There are four categories of sponsorship (Emerald, Title, Major, and Event categories) that correspond to the value of companies’ contribution. To become a sponsor of the event, contact Nevitt at 233-REEF (7333), or email castro.fran@gmail.com. (MINA)
