Events | Help support Zack’s Dream Room

Tuesday, March 13th, 2012

If you’re in the Greater Toronto Area, check out this special screening of “Being Elmo: A Puppeteer’s Journey” where the proceeds will go to Zack’s Dream Room in support of York Central Hospital.

You can read a bit of background about Zack in this blog post by his mom Heather as she tells her story about why Elmo was so special to her son. Knowing about Zack, his family and how dedicated they are to honouring his memory and raising money to build not one but two special rooms at the York Central hospital, we didn’t hesitate when Heather asked for an auction item for the silent auction at the Being Elmo event.

So, if you’re in the Toronto area, want to see a fantastic film and support a great cause, and if you’ve been eyeing our @ symbol necklace, there’s a fantastic opportunity to bid on one this Sunday, March 18th. Tickets for the screening are available here (they’re only available online as they won’t be selling tickets at the door).

Event | Wear it Loud 2010

Tuesday, August 17th, 2010

We’re proud to say that Blend Creations will be part of this year’s Wear it Loud event in Toronto.  Wear !t Loud 2010: Party for a Cause benefits Plan Canada‘s Because I am a Girl campaign:

There is no question that investing in girls in developing countries is the key to reducing global poverty and instability. Girls have a unique power to positively influence the lives of those around them, as future women, mothers, workers and leaders. If they are healthy, educated, and empowered, they will pull themselves out of poverty, and bring their children, communities and nations along with them.

Blend Creations jewelry will be appearing on the runway with a collection by renowned Canadian fashion designer, David Dixon on August 19th.  There will also be music by Anna Cyzon, Candy Coated Killahz and DJ Chris LaRoque.  We’ve heard from event organizers that tickets are close to being sold out, so if you’re in the Toronto area and want to party for a cause, please go check it out!
