A SHIFT online didn’t hinder enthusiasm for United Way Glenelg’s second annual live crowd fundraiser on Thursday with a larger audience and more money raised than 2019.

An impressive $45,800 was pledged by the Shark Pitch audience, which peaked at more than 170 registered online participants, although co-organiser Nicole Carr from United Way Glenelg said many more people were believed to have been watching from home on shared devices.
