Action was fast and furious up on the Flames Central stage
By Markham Hislop
Organizers are calling the YYC4Haiti fundraiser at Flames Central Thursday night “a huge success” after packing the establishment on Stephen Avenue with over 1,000 people and raising more than $25,000 for Red Cross relief efforts.

That was music? Continue Reading

By Markham Hislop
YYC4Haiti began life 10 days ago as a casual Twitter chat by three Calgary media personalities concerned about the disaster in Haiti, and has since blossomed into a major fundraising event that organizers believe will pack Flames Central Thursday night and raise a significant amount of money for Red Cross relief efforts. Alex Ruiz, one of the original tweeters, says she is amazed at how the city has rallied behind YYC4Haiti in such a short time. The last piece of the puzzle, she adds, is for the business community to open their cheque books and she is confident there are many generous companies that will step up. Continue Reading
