We help these individuals become self-sufficient citizens to go on to lead fulfilling and productive lives. Funds are raised through various international wine events, wine auctions, corporate and private home wine tastings. Through our partners we direct the proceeds of these events to those in immediate need. Grapes for Humanity is an organization that is run on the strength of its volunteers. We pride ourselves on the fact that all monies raised go directly to our chosen partner. The chosen partner for this auction is HALO for their on-going work with victims of landmines in Angola. The money we raise through the on-line auction will be matched by the Julia Burke Foundation in California. As part of the CITY SONIC short films being premiered at TIFF, Geddy Lee takes viewers on a tour of the historic Massey Hall with director Bruce McDonald. Rush ended their 2112 tour with sold-out concerts in June of 1976 at Massey Hall, which were recorded for the double-live album All the World's A Stage. It was a first for Rush, but not the first time singer/bassist Geddy Lee felt magic on the legendary stage at Massey. See behind the scenes here:http://blog.citysonic.tv/ | ||||||||||
