Our family variety show is this Sunday at 1:30 in the Richelieu Centre, 300 des Peres Blancs, Vanier. It will feature the amazing Elliott the Magician. Elliott and I were on Rogers Daytime televison show this morning and he did a trick that left us with our mouths hanging open.
Also featured will be two musicians, Barb Myers and Peter Voith, two standup comics, Jennifer Hayward and Mark Adamson, a contemporary dancer, Janine Ramsarup and the Beyond Redemption Choir. We will have a silent auction, amazing door prizes and refreshments.
Tickets are only $30 and children 12 and under will be admitted free if accompanied by an adult, although we would appreciate a donation. Ticket purchases and donations can be made at the link below or at the door. All proceeds will go to Plan Canada who will direct them towards helping young women in Africa start small businesses. The federal government has committed to contributing $3 for every $1 we raise.
You can't miss this. Come on out, have a great time and support a very worthy cause at the same time.
Education for Africa Variety Show
Barry and Chris Finlay from Ottawa, Ontario, Canada successfully climbed Mount Kilimanjaro in January 2009 and have since raised enough money, in conjunction with Plan Canada, to provide access to clean water and classrooms for a community in Tanzania. They are now embarking on a project to help youth and women ages 15-24 in Tanzania to establish businesses. Read about their journey in their book, Kilimanjaro and Beyond. This Blog describes upcoming events and how you can help.
