Pearls Only for the Boys - QS16 & ET55
Funds from Pearls Only for the Boys will support the new Multi-Sport Centre overlooking Cairns Field at the Gordie Howe Sports Complex. To date, over 700 shirts have been sold . These sales have allowed the Stevenson and Thomas families to make a $12K donation to GHSC construction. Much thanks to 22fresh whose support has been instrumental to the success of Pearls Only for the Boys.
Pearls Only for the Boys started as a 22fresh tee shirt initiative. It now includes 22fresh hoodies.
Background on how Pearls Only for the Boys got started. Kip Simon came up with the concept and his company 22fresh supplied the tee shirts (and hoodies).
The Stevenson and Thomas families officially presented $12,000 to the Friends of the Bowl (Gordie Howe Sports Complex) on behalf of Pearls Only for the Boys.
