Eight Easter Seals Drop Zone events have raised more than $1M for Easter Seals programs and services. With five more events to go the Drop Zone will likely once again break its fundraising record from the previous year.

Easter Seals Drop Zone, which takes place in 13 cities Canada-wide from August to early October, challenges participants to get out of their comfort zones in support of Easter Seals’ transformational programs and services. Participants raise a minimum $1500 to rappel off the side of a skyscraper. Many get into the spirit and don superhero costumes.

Drop Zone participants and sponsors in Saskatoon and Victoria smashed last year’s totals, each raising more than $100,000, up from the $64,000 range last year. Calgary once again has raised more than $200,000 with Vancouver close behind.

St. John’s had a very good first time event, raising $49,000. London is also participating for the first time. It sold out a month after opening up registration. Citizens were clamouring to rappel off the city’s exciting 26-story One London Place. They will soon get their chance.

Upcoming Drop Zone events include Montreal (Sept 21), Ottawa (Sept 26), London (Sept 29) and Toronto (Oct 6). For more visit www.thedropzone.ca.
