A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO LITERACY - EVENT PRESENTED BY The Lani Donaldson Literacy Foundation










On Friday, April 30th 2010 we had chance to attend an amazing event " A Night in Veags", presented by The Lani Donaldson Literacy Foundation, which took place at Willow Park Wines & Spirits, in Calgary.
The goal of the event was to raise $25.000 with the proceeds directed towards girls'scholaships in the nine countries in which Room to Read operates, and to provide funding for a literacy pilot project at Youville (Recovery Residence for Women).
During the evening we had chance to taste different kind of wines,experienced nice music, a magician, Elvis, live and silent auction but most important-had an opportunity to help break the cycle of poverty through the education of women and children.
