Haiti, Je T’Aime
Sponsored/Organized by Cheek Magazine
+ Monday, Jan. 25, 2010
+ Revival Bar, Toronto, 783 College Street
DJ sets from Eon of Bedouin Soundclash, k-os, Brendan Canning of Broken Social Scene, DJ Starting From Scratch and others. The event, that is in part sponsored by CHEEKmagazine.com, will be hosted by MTV, MuchMusic and CP24 personalities.
A minimum of $10 donation will be asked for at the door, with 100 per cent of the proceeds going directly to Plan Canada’s Haiti Relief Fund.
Bring your cash and cheques and make a bid on 50 different items at the silent auction, including goodies such as signed shoes from each one of the Toronto Raptors, concert tickets, dinner gift certificates, spa treatments, yoga passes, jewelry, and much more!
SHOP FOR THE CAUSE 2 – A fundraiser for HAITI (via the Red Cross)
+ Saturday January 23rd, 11am to 5pm
+ Queen St. East Presbyterian Church, 947 Queen St. East (at Carlaw)
A jumble sale, fashion market & bake sale.
Expect a medley of new merch & gift certificates donated by big-hearted Toronto artists/designers, small businesses, eateries & local shops – as well as tempting heaps of gently used quality items and vintage finds (books, clothing, CDs & vinyl, accessories, housewares, kids’ toys, fabric & craft supplies, etc.)
BONUS: a silent auction and gourmet bake sale spotlighting high-end pastries at a discount along with yummy homemade edibles donated by area volunteers.
ALL money raised goes directly to the Haiti Earthquake relief efforts via the Canadian Red Cross. In 2005 we raised $16K for the Tsunami survivors at the first ‘Shop for the Cause’ event, and we hope to match that amount for Haiti.
