On Friday March 11th 2011, tragedy struck Japan in the form of a devastating 9.0 earthquake, triggering a tsunami that left the beautiful island country in a state of emergency.
Here in Toronto, we celebrate our multicultural heritage on a regular basis and when a member of the international community calls out for help, we come running.
On Thursday March 31st 2011, join us at Tattoo Rock Parlour for an epic night of fundraising; we'll be raffling off prizes from some incredible sponsors, dancing to fantastic tunes and generally having a great time at one of the top venues in the city... and all for a great cause. All proceeds from the event will be donated to the Japan Earthquake/Asia-Pacific Tsunami fund with the Canadian Red Cross. Why wouldn't you come?
Doors open at 9 p.m. - will we see you there?
