What's Scrabble® With The Stars?
It's a signature fundraiser for Performing Arts Lodges, Toronto, a unique organization that
offers help to performing
arts professionals in the areas of health and affordable housing. Funds raised at the seventh
annual Scrabble® With The Stars will fund the next steps towards providing
assisted living
care for PAL residents who can no longer live independently. This will allow residents whose
failing health precludes independent living to remain among fellow pros with whom they share a
common bonds while receiving the additional care they need.
Dine, mingle and play Scrabble with some of the Canada's most eminent celebrities. In past years
we've welcomed Graham
Greene, Michael Burgess, Margaret Atwood, R.H. Thomson, Jayne Eastwood, Gordon Pinsent, Colin
Fox, Paul Soles, Austin
Clarke, Jeanne Beker and Mark Breslin.
On April 4th, the game is the thing. But the rest of the year, the aim is the life, the health
and welfare and spirit
of our artistic community. They give us entertainment and food for thought. Let's give them our
support!
