David and Margo Knight with the kayaks they constructed and donated to the People Plus senior center as a fundraiser.
People Plus, the Brunswick-area senior community center, is raffling a pair of kayaks to raise funds for its services.
The kayaks are described by People Plus as “gently used” and “hand-crafted,” constructed and donated by Margo and David Knight. Also included are paddles, a roof rack and other accessories. The package is valued at over $5,000, according to People Plus.
Raffle tickets are $20 each and support homebound elders with groceries, prescription deliveries and other services offered by People Plus, which is trying to fill a $60,000 fundraising gap following the cancelation of its major fundraiser last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Tickets can be purchased at peopleplusmaine.org, at the People Plus Center at 35 Union St. or by calling (207) 729-0757. The drawing will be Friday, April 30.
