The Ed & Irene Fleis Education Fund annual fundraiser raised over $100,000 last month.
“We met our goals and donations are still coming in,” said Larry Fleis, chairperson of the event and treasurer of the Fleis Education Fund. “A big thank you goes out to our growing community of supporters and volunteers who helped by bidding, donating money and auction items, and sponsoring the event.”
About 260 silent auction items were donated. Top auction items sold included trips to Portugal, Florida, and Lake Leelanau. Many sport items and football, basketball, hockey and baseball tickets to Detroit Lions, Michigan State University, University of Michigan, and Whitecaps were auctioned.
