Kinsa's Heroes of the Fight celebration last night was absolutely spectacular!
Friends and supporters of Kinsa gathered at the elegant Design Exchange building in Toronto to pay tribute to the seven remarkable individuals who were honoured as Kinsa's Heroes of the Fight this year. Richard Underhill and his band created the ambiance for the night with live jazz music during the cocktail reception. Beverly Thomson from Canada AM once again joined us as emcee, for the evening, infecting the audience with her passion for the Kinsa cause, and sharing the inspiring stories of how the Heroes of the Fight have made an impact in the lives of children in Canada and around the world. And to top the night off circus performers entertained the crowd with impressive acrobatics on hoops and ropes, adding a magical element to the night!
