IMHO held an awareness and fundraising event at the Riviera Parque Banquet & Convention Centre in Concord, Ontario, Canada on Friday, October 10, 2008. The event was a success with hundreds in attendance, who enjoyed dinner and a creative performance of fusion dance. Video footage capturing the tragic tales of suffering from the ongoing crisis were shown, capturing the attention and sympathy of all attendees. The original purpose of the event was to raise funds for the establishment of a comprehensive cardiac unti at the Jaffna Teaching Hospital. However, due to an unexpected turn of events in the Vanni area, a part of the collected funds were disbursed to attend emergency medical needs of the internally displaced people. This included hiring additional medical and support staff and providing medical supplies to hospitals which had been serving the affected people of the area. Incredibly, the event raised approximately $100,000! |
