Celebrity Gala Raises $1 Million for Sick Kids
Actors, musicians, athletes, and wrestlers flowed into Toronto last week to attend the thirteenth annual Bell Mobility Celebrity Gala in support of the Sick Kids Foundation, an organization that helps The Hospital for Sick Children.
Organizers set a fundraising goal of $500,000. However, with the help of such celebrities as Natasha Henstridge, the Barenaked Ladies, Morris Peterson and Chris Bosh of the Raptors, Maple Leaf legends Wendel Clark, Doug Gilmour, and Rick Vaive, the Tragically Hip, Ronnie Hawkins and over a hundred more, $1 million was raised.
Although they came to support the cause, the celebrities did not hesitate to party. With a ’70s theme and JT Taylor of Kool and the Gang on hand to lend the musical entertainment, how could they not?
andPOP was on hand to find out what makes a good party and who the celebrities would love to party with. Watch the video to see such celebrities as the Barenaked Ladies, the Tragically Hip, Gilmour, Peterson, Trish Stratus, Bret Hart, Hawkins, In Essence, Snow, Henstridge, Damon Allen of the Argos, and oh so many more.
