6. Media/Advertising Update
a. August-September mini themed campaign
The Committee reviewed the two (2) options for the “Back to School” themed
advertisement (attached) for the local papers and social media, and they decided to go
with Option #1. The ad features a picture of the ABBY system, one of the items in the
September catalogue. Jamie Chapman suggested including more information on the
ABBY system in the ads so that people have a better understanding of what it is, and the
Committee agreed to include a link to a promotional video on the social media ads and in
the online catalogue. The print ad will be updated to include a statement such as, “For
more information on the ABBY system, please visit donatetoterracelodge.ca.”
The Committee also discussed sending the advertisement to the German radio station.
They had previously offered to translate and run regular ads related to the fundraising
campaign.
Councillor Giguère advised the Committee that the North Shore Beacon interviewed
Shirley Carroll, mayor of the Residents’ Council, and published an article on the
fundraising campaign earlier this month.
7. Donor Recognition
a. Photos, Cards, Social Media
Councillor Giguère provided an update on donor recognition. Staff are working on
organizing another photo opportunity for donors. It will likely be scheduled for September.
Work is also underway to get a TV monitor for the foyer in Terrace Lodge which would
display donor names and photos.
8. Fundraising Strategies
a. Legacy Giving
The Committee reviewed a draft legacy giving brochure (attached) and endorsed the
concept. Councillor Giguère will contact the Aylmer Express to see if they are willing to
partner with the Campaign to design and print copies of the brochure. Once printed, the
brochure would be placed in the lobby of Terrace Lodge and at the front office. A sign
giving more information on legacy giving could be displayed with the brochures in the
lobby.
9. New Business
Ruth Anne Perrin shared a community question with the Committee. She was approached by a
community member who asked how the prices in the fundraising catalogue were determined.
The community member was concerned that the price for the stackable chairs was too high.
Councillor Giguère explained that the prices were estimates only and that staff would source the
best price at the time of purchase. Committee members were also invited to let the Chair know if
any of the other prices seemed too high, and staff could adjust the figures on the website.
10. Closed Session
