Great Fish Community Challenge Awards Presentation Description:
Join us to celebrate the fourth annual Great Fish Community Challenge Awards Presentation on Thursday, October 18th. Whitefish Community Foundation will hold a pre-reception from 5:00 - 6:00 PM at Casey's with a slideshow, hors d'oeuvres, and no-host bar. Following the reception, the awards ceremony will begin at 6:15 PM at the Whitefish Performing Arts Center, just a short walk from Casey's backdoor.

The match percentage is being calculated and will be unveiled at the Ceremony. Several bonus grants will be announced at the Awards Celebration. The Great Fish Award, which includes a $5,000 grant, will recognize a nonprofit that demonstrated outstanding participation in all areas of the 2018 Challenge. This award is selected each year by the Whitefish Community Foundation Board of Directors. Special awards, including the Jean Howard Memorial Award, Russ and Mary Jane Street Community Service Award, and Doris Schumm Community Spirit Award, will also be announced.

After a final performance, a $1,000 grant will be presented to the nonprofit winner of the Mic Drop Contest for the most creative rap representing the true spirit of the Great Fish Community Challenge. Throughout the campaign, incentive grants totaling more than $15,000 were offered to help encourage donations to the 50 participating charities. We hope that you can join us to celebrate all of our wonderful nonprofits and donors that made this years campaign another huge success!
