Thank you Toronto! An impressive 1.5 million dollars was raised at the sixth annual Bovet 1822 and Artists for Peace and Justice 2014 Festival Gala held at Casa Loma. Inspirational community organizer, priest, and doctor, Father Rick Frechette said it best: “It’s not charity; it’s solidarity. Helping children in Haiti is a matter of justice that leads to peace.” Co-Chaired by Natasha Koifman and Sylvia Mantella, the event was co-hosted by an influential team of artists, actors, and philanthropists, including Paul Haggis, Madeleine Stowe, Jason Reitman, George Stroumboulopoulos, and Mr. Pascal Raffy, Owner of Bovet 1822.
