Meet Jessia, Stephanie and Tula, hosts of ‘Embrace the Unique’ charity gala dinner, a new fundraiser for Autism Speaks Canada. The event was held on February 1, 2020, and raised over $12,400. 100 guests attended and enjoyed a five-course meal, live performances by a jazz pianist, a DJ and a singer, and had the opportunity to participate in a silent auction.
The three women said they wanted to host a fundraiser for Autism Speaks Canada as a way of giving back to their community, but also, like many Canadians, because the cause is close to their heart. Stephanie’s parents look after a home for children with autism and Tula’s cousin has autism.
“Our hope for the future is to continue to help our community and those in need!”
