About this Event
Gelato Fiasco and the Brunswick Area Teen Center are excited to announce the annual Teen Center Scoop-a-thon! Area businesses and residents are invited to support community youth at the Gelato Fiasco Flagship Store in Brunswick from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. Wednesday, April 29. Gelato Fiasco will donate $2.00 from every dish, cone, pint, or coffee sold to the Brunswick Area Teen Center. Purchases will count from all customers and no special code is needed. This event is also sponsored by many local businesses.
Throughout the day there will be entertainment, a 50/50 raffle, and celebrity scoopers, and Bowdoin College will be providing nighttime entertainment and scoopers.
This is the 18th annual Scoop-a-Thon. These annual events have seen over 1,000 people participating yearly and have raised over $100,000 for the Teen Center Program!
The success of the annual Teen Center Scoop-a-Thon fundraiser inspired Gelato Fiasco to create its Scooping for Community Program, which provides an opportunity for non-profit organizations to mobilize supporters and raise funds for their organizations in the greater Brunswick and Portland areas. The program provides support to more than two dozen school and community organizations each year.
The Gelato Fiasco Flagship Store is located at 74 Maine St. in downtown Brunswick. For more information about the event, visit peopleplusmaine.org.
