  3. Hi all...

    Every year I do a big cancer benefit in honour of a charity my sister started called ALLI'S JOURNEY. It raises money for young adults with cancer. This year, the money is going to our first Alli's Journey room which is opening on Oct 7th at Sunnybrook. It'll be the site of all support services and have comfy couches, chairs, TVs, IPod dock, movie library and other amenities to make life more comfortable for chemo patients.

    When: WEDNESDAY JUNE 9TH 2010

    Where: KOERNER HALL (Royal Conservatory), Toronto.

    Time: 7PM

    Price: $35 and $95

    Avail: www.rcmusic.ca (scroll down)

    PERFORMING:

    JULLY BLACK

    OHBIJOU

    DAN MANGAN
