Please join us at TEAL Charitable Foundation’s fifth annual fundraiser for refugees, ‘Tears to Smiles’ – Wine & Cheese Reception at Creekside Community Centre in Olympic Village on Friday, November 15th from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Funds raised will go toward scholarships for refugees wishing to study at a post-secondary institution in British Columbia.
The evening will feature special guest Tima Kurdi, a Syrian-Canadian human rights activist and author, a silent auction, live entertainment, past refugee award winners, a chance to socialize with friends and colleagues over a glass of wine and appetizers, and – most importantly – it will be an opportunity to make a young refugee’s dreams come true.
Tickets are $40 and include wine, appetizers and door prizes. Guest are eligible to receive a charitable tax receipt in the amount of $25 per ticket. The tax receipt will be issued to the ticket buyer.
Tickets are available for purchase online and will also be available for purchase at the door. Cash and credit cards accepted.
