Hiya Friends!
Christine here. On October 2nd, Rob and I will be joining our buddy Gabriel and his family/friends (collectively called Gabriel's Wolf Pack) in an evening lantern walk to raise funds for the Leukemia & Lymphona Society of Canada (LLSC). Gabriel was only 6 months old when he was diagnosed with leukemia - he's nearly 2 years old now, in remission and continuing his treatment. Science to understand & treat blood cancers has come a long way since my cousin Jason died of childhood leukemia 30 years ago - but there's still lots of work to do. LLSC raises funds for research and patient / family support and it's a worthy cancer-fighting cause. Our oven is broken, so my traditional fundraising technique of a bake sale won't work. Instead, I've got a couple of incentives for you to donate. 1. The highest donation made by a non-Torontonian will receive one of Rob's "Shanghai Scooter" drawings - frame & postage included. Choose from the selection below. 2. The highest donation made by a Torontonian will get a personal walking tour of "the wrong side of the tracks" with Rob and I. The walking tour of our neighbourhood includes a gallery of public murals, secret food highlights, a local micro-brewery, and plenty of colourful commentary and historical anecdotes. 3. The highest Bruce Power donor will receive a generous basket of our baked goods in December, just in time for Christmas treats and by then we should have an oven again! Minimum donation to compete for the prizes = $100. If there's a tie, we'll either having a bidding war (top up your donation!) or draw straws. If you only have a little to give, that's OK too. Every $$ is awesome! To donate online |
