Trivia Night H.E.T.R.A. Fundraiser

Each year the Modern Professional group hosts a fundraising event that benefi ts the current winner of the Sarpy Chamber’s Nonprofi t of the Year title. The goal has always been to raise money and promote awareness of a local nonprofi t, but the event itself is always changing shape, and on March 3rd, the Modern Professional fundraiser took the form of a Trivia Night at Lucky Bucket Brewing Company. The event raised money for H.E.T.R.A., whose mission is to improve the quality of life both physically and emotionally of adults and children of all ability levels through equine-assisted activities. A dozen teams of 4-6 people competed in a 4-category pub quiz specially written for the event. Teams were tested on their knowledge of famous fi rsts, pop culture families, music lyrics, and the trickiest category gave players the name of a horse and asked them to identify whether that name was a horse at H.E.T.R.A., a My Little Pony Character from 1986, or both. Proceeds from team registrations, raffl e ticket purchases, and sponsorships enabled the Modern Professional group to raise over $2,000 for the Nonprofi t of the Year Winner.

The group is incredibly thankful to event sponsors, First State Bank, American Family Insurance Franker & Associates, and ROC Business Technologies. Prizes for the quiz and raffl e were also generously provided by Lucky Bucket and Wounded Warriors Family Support.

Tara on what she like most about membership meetings:

“I have so much respect for the work our members do, particularly those who own a business, so I love learning about them and their business. There’s a unique understanding that can only come from talking with someone and hearing their story and that helps me have a better understanding of their needs and who to connect them with.”

Breann on how membership meetings empower members:

“Membership meetings are a time and place where we welcome you to be really honest with us about your needs, what’s made you successful, what’s challenged you. Don’t feel like you need to tell me ‘No worries, everything is fi ne,’ when there’s something the Sarpy Chamber could be doing to reach that next level. I want to engage with people on their goals and have those conversations.” Whether you’re thinking about joining the Sarpy Chamber or want to get more out of your benefi ts as an existing member, setting up a meeting is your next best step.
