For the second year in a row, Isle of Mann Property Group (IOM) has sponsored the Sources Foundation’s Annual Fundraising Gala. Ravi Mann, Director of Finance and Investment at IOM, said that one of the reasons why they have continued to support SOURCES is because of the wide variety of ways SOURCES helps the community.
“Sometimes when you do a lot, you do a little of a lot—but SOURCES does a lot of a lot!” said Mann. “David (SOURCES CEO) took me on a tour last summer of some local programs like the Food Bank, Women’s Place, a residential program and a centre for at-risk teens. I saw all of that and each one was incredible. It’s telling to the care that’s put into each of these community services.
“When you see so much positive work happening within the community that you also live and work in, you want to help do your part to make sure it doesn’t stop,” Mann said. Read More…

“We’re so proud of our relationship with SOURCES,” said Frank Fourchalk, General Manager at Hazelmere.
“There are so many organizations out there doing wonderful things in this community, but SOURCES has such a wide reach and variety of programs and services; that’s why we gravitate towards them.

April 13, 2019 was a truly magical evening.
At the sold-out Sources Foundation’s 24th Annual Fundraising Gala, “Enchanted,” the Queen of the Fairies and other mystical beings descended upon Hazelmere Golf & Tennis Club and bestowed mysterious powers to the 250 guests who entered our forest of dreams. These powers allowed them to cast spells of great fortune, which they generously used to help us fundraise far more than our $275,000 goal…
