Ottawa4FortMac Fundraiser

June 8, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 10:00 pm

Ottawa4FortMacAs you may know, in a city-wide evacuation, wildfires have displaced tens of thousands of residents of Fort McMurray, Alberta, including nearby communities.

#Ottawa4FortMac is a fundraiser hosted by Ottawa Senators player Chris Phillips and Mayor Jim Watson. It will take place from 6:30PM to 10:00PM on Wednesday June 8, ‎Aberdeen Pavilion, at Lansdowne Park.

This “western roundup” themed event will feature live music by Ottawa-born Country sensation Kira Isabella, Ottawa Country group River Town Saints and Country brother duo The Abrams, as well as Jordan McIntosh and Meghan Patrick. Enjoy a dinner catered by local pizzerias, craft beer sampling provided by local breweries and western-themed activities.

Tickets for the Fort McMurray fundraising event are now on sale, at a cost of $ 80 each. 

Tickets are in limited quantities and are available for purchase online here, or by cash payment at Big Rig Brewery locations and at the Mayor’s office at City Hall. Donations made by May 31 will be matched by the Government of Canada. 

This natural disaster may become the costliest in Canadian history, but the impact on the lives of our fellow Canadians in Fort McMurray is much greater.

It is crucial that residents of Ottawa unite to assist those who have been affected by this tragedy.  

Please consider supporting the residents of Fort McMurray as they rebuild their lives and their community, by attending #Ottawa4FortMac or volunteering at the event.
