What a great combination of good causes! REACH does such good work providing opportunities for disabled folks to participate in music.

On May 24th, a very special concert will take place in Victoria for a very important and worthy cause. We're sure the audience will be inspired. We'd also love for you to come and experience this firsthand yourself.
The HOPE AND BELONGING Benefit Concert is to support the amazing work of VICCIR (Vancouver Island Counselling Centre for Immigrants and Refugees - co-founded by Adrienne Carter) www.viccir.org/ . The work they do with newcomers to Canada who have experienced trauma (and sometimes torture) is truly life-changing. However, like other agencies serving newcomers, VICCIR has recently experienced major funding cuts from the federal government. So we're trying to help and have lined up more than 60 amazing performers in a show sure to bring joy and hope to those who experience it.
Full information and tickets online are available at: https://hopeandbelonging.eventbrite.ca
Printed tickets may also be purchased at VICCIR (by cash or cheque) at #100 - 850 Blanshard St., Tel. 778-404-1777.
Advanced tickets are recommended. (They are less expensive and concerts produced by REACH! sometimes sell out in advance.)
