#TwilightYEG Charity Event in Edmonton

A charity tweetup is taking place here in Edmonton on May 20 – thanks to @ZoomJer! #TwilightYEG (yes that’s a hashtag for you non-twitter folks!!) sounds like a ton of fun and I personally am planning to attend. I bought two tickets actually, and now am deciding (or waiting for them to decide actually, lol) if I’m bringing DH or BFF. I think probably BFF and we’ll leave DH home with the boys. Lucky him!

The event is taking place at Hundred Bar Kitchen on Rice Howard Way and 100 St. I’ve never been there but the dessert menu alone has me drooling!

I can’t wait to meet some of favorite #yeg tweeps and the cause is very worthwhile.

Royal LePage Shelter Foundation Facts:
• Royal LePage is the only Canadian real estate company with its own charity
• It is the largest public foundation in Canada dedicated exclusively to supporting shelters and ending violence against women and children
• In addition to helping victims, it also aims to prevent domestic violence through a partnership with the Canadian Women’s Foundation to provide grants to provincial agencies that help women gain independence and economic self-sufficiency

Sadly, I’ve had enough personal experience with family violence to last me forever and a charity that helps women become more independent is definitely my idea of a worthwhile one.
I can’t wait! Oh and if you can’t make it, I’m sure you could make a donation to the charity anyway if you want – times are tough but any donation will help, right?
