Onyx Group is participating in the 2009 Big Bend Start! Heart Walk event that will be held Saturday, October 17th at Tom Brown Park. We have pledged to raise $2,500 to support the event and the American Heart Association.

In an effort to raise awareness for the American Heart Association’s Heart Walk Event and to help us reach our goal we will be hosting the “Toast To Donate” Heart Walk event at The Winery @  The Red Bar, 1122 Thomasville Road, on Wednesday, September 23rd from 5:30 to 8:30pm.

Our event will include a wine tasting of four wines selected by The Winery and hors d’oeuvres. The $25 ticket includes entrance into the event as well as one complimentary ticket for our raffle. Extra raffle tickets will be available at the event for one dollar each or four dollars for the purchase of five tickets.

ELC Sock Hop

Onyx Group has recently signed on to be a “Jitterbug” sponsor for the Early Learning Coalition of the Big Bend’s first annual “Ready for School, Ready to Learn” Sock Hop. The event will take place at the Goodwood Carriage House on Saturday, August 29th. Guests can boogie to 1950’s classic tunes, check out the cool class cards, and enjoy great retro food and drink served up by ELC’s own soda jerks.

Money raised from the Sock Hop event will help the ELC raise funds to help less fortunate children and families, specifically benefiting ELC’s scholarship fund that helps families that do not qualify for the School Readiness program. These Care Scholarship funds combined with the numerous support services provided to the families by the ELC, will ensure that children are more likely to receive a high quality early learning experience, ensuring that each child will be ready for school and ready for life. “This is a great event with a wonderful goal at it’s core: helping children and families,” says Nadia Kamal, Onyx Group Agency Principal.

If you are interested in purchasing tickets to the event, or becoming an event sponsor, visit www.elcbigbend.org. Tickets are $25 each and sponsorship opportunities are still available!
