As a result of the global coronavirus pandemic, our Council has opted to conduct a “Virtual Tootsie Roll Drive” this year in lieu of street- corner solicitations. Since the founding of Council #6710 at St. Irene’s in 1975, we have never missed a year in helping to support a variety of organizations that assist the mentally disabled.
Typically, we collect donations annually on the third week of September. For the Virtual Drive we will conduct through the month of September. To make a donation, follow this link St. Irene Intellectual Disabilities Fund Drive. Our goal is to raise $10,000.
The GoFundme is the most trusted crowd online fundraising platform. Please share the Virtual Drive page on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, as well as by email. Look for future emails from the Council urging your participation.
Thank you for any financial support you can provide to this most worthy cause! With your donation this year, we can only, unfortunately, offer you a “virtual” Tootsie Roll.
