    I can only imagine how busy they are with PJ20 fundraiser. So, I went ahead and confirmed HamiltonCAS as the benefactor of the Hamilton pre-party.

    They are a registered non-profit who helps crown wards who are living on their own before coming of age, either because they were not adopted due to age and/or cannot return to their biological families. It's amazing what they HCAS does for them, and they work very hard to help those kids learn a better way of life.

    Soooo...I guess the Hamilton pre-party is now organized! :mrgreen:

    Thank you to thewordselope, demetrios, and FitPearl for all their help and suggestions! :thumbup: :clap:
    Lots of love, light and hugs to you all!

    yeah or course they are all very busy and I understand that. And i dont want to caplain because it's very a pleasure for me to do that. But i dont want either have to wait until last last minute and/orsay yes to the Montreal's benefactor without the approuval of Laura/Wushlist foundation, just in case there is something wrong.

    Just go ahead and book it all. Set it up. As long as its a registered not for profit you will be fine. I only really ran into problems when I was looking at a charity that wasnt for sure a not for profit. And on that one a waited and talked to Laura over the phone. Im hoping to call her today. So I will tell her to check her PMs.

    I already told them thats its all set for sure at 95%, but they have questions, which I need Laura to help me and give me answers. ;)

    for Canadian volunteers!
    Cheers.

    I would love to volunteer but they won't let me in since I don't have kanadian visa. World is quite funnysometimes isn't it? borders btw lands as if we didn't have 'em already btw one another for strange reasons. people are strange, world is sick and needs healing.

    If I knew how to fly and be free as my name, I would come and help :)

    take care, love and peace and freedom

    I don't know who you are and who Laura is really but I feel she needs that call

    have fun for me to at PJ20 events. At least I won't cry

    take good care

    Aaaaaaand nice to see that the Ottawa pre-party is at Bert's Bar. That will be super convenient for everyone involved as it is right inside the venue! Hoping to make it out to it . . . .

    The map gives you a little longer way to get to the ACC. From the Loose Moose take the right down on York Street then on the left on Bremner Blvd. It's almost a 5 minute walk.
