Princeton Show Jumping Partnering With JustWorld to Support GIVE 4 GOOD

Princeton, NJ - March 18, 2014 - Princeton Show Jumping is excited to announce its partnership with JustWorld International's GIVE 4 GOOD Campaign. Please join us April 23 - 27 for our AA Premiere Hunter, Equitation and Jumper show and support JustWorld International. Events held throughout the week will help fund missions that bring meals, education, health care, and development programs to Princeton Show Jumping's chosen cause, the children of Honduras.

The fundraising week will be kicked-off with the JustWorld International jump in the main competition ring. With each clear attempt of the jump, sponsors will contribute $10 to the children of Honduras. The JustWorld International team and ambassadors will be in attendance for the duration of the week, which will culminate on Sunday afternoon with a Benefit Luncheon to be held during the $25,000 Grand Prix of Princeton. The Luncheon, held in the VIP tent overlooking the main competition arena, will feature a Silent Auction with proceeds going directly to JustWorld International. If you are interested in donating items to the Silent Auction, please contact sjurak@justworldinternational.org.
