Bring Colour Update.

On March 13, 2011 I helped to put a team of 20 together to run a 5km run/walk in support of the Achilles Canada Foundation sponsored by the Running Room, Irish Spring and Steamwhistle Brewery. The great part about this particular run is that each team member was responsible for paying the $40 registration fee which went to the Achilles Foundation, but every dollar raised after that amount went towards a charity or organization of you choice. After bringing this up to a friend of mine who runs "Hope 4 Help" who started a primary school in Kenya and have been fully supporting it for a couple of years (www.hope4help.ca), we decided to create a team and split proceeds 50/50. In the end we managed to raise $700 for each organization. Bring Colour was able to donate $700 to Dzanja La Chifundo who have let me know are now providing daily meals to an additional 120 children. I am thinking the next event will be a low key band night (hopefully at the legendary Cameron House in Toronto). This will likely be in July as I am planning on tying it in with my birthday. More information is soon to come!
