the ‘Horses/Benches on Parade’ fundraisers
Taking a cue from the ‘Horses/Benches on Parade’ fundraisers, the
ecommerce collection will ultimately be auctioned as individual statues to the highest bidders, with the proceeds appropriately benefiting Teresa House.
To realize his project, Olson enlisted assistance of another “angel,” Livingston County’s angel of economic renaissance and building restoration, Greg O’Connell.
The raw sheet steel was purchased by O’Connell.“Since it is being cut down to small pieces anyway, we are using as many scrap sheets as we could find in the supply houses,” O’Connell told The County News. “It cost a few thousand dollars all told.”
When several additional statues were conceived
ecommerce outside the original scope of the project, O’Connell again supplied the necessary material.
