You continue to make a difference

On Friday, April 5, new faces packed the crowd at Design Hope Toronto’s eighth annual art auction.

At St. John's Parish Hall, we raised over $12,000 for the Parkdale Activity-Recreation Centre (PARC), bringing our total for vital homeless services for the past 8 years to over $110,000.

And by we, we mean you. We are always awed by the talent of the artists who donate work for our cause, and the hearts of everyone who comes out to bid.

This year, we were happy to see so many new faces in the crowd. We hope they left with a bit of inspiration to share.

CBC continues to provide their gracious support, this time with Asha Tomlinson as our host. As always, Waddington’s Bill Kime kept the auction fun and purposeful. And for the second year in a row, tamm ran a stellar marketing campaign.

A special thanks again to Victor Willis and PARC. The evening was anchored by the special words of PARC's members, and the special sounds of the PARC band.

Please see the complete list of event sponsors and donors in our event catalogue. Nothing we do could be done without them.
