Surrey’s business community gave generously at the Surrey Board of Trade’s annual Seasonal Sizzle Business Reception on December 5. The event raised over $12,500 and 555 pounds of food for the Surrey Food Bank, in partnership with The Full Cupboard.

The event was sponsored by Balraj Mann of BM Group of Companies. His son Milan Mann and wife were also present at the event. Envision Financial was also a sponsor. 

Over 500 business people attended the annual holiday event, donating to the Surrey Food Bank in lieu of admission fees.
