Www.ShadesofHope.ca is located just outside of Orillia on Lake Simcoe in Pefferlaw. They are always looking for drivers to help with their injured wildlife. If you can help, please call 705-437-4654.
Recently, www.Dogstarz.ca did a fundraiser for Shades of Hope. This story was particularly touching. One of my Second City students, Mike Robbyns, asked me if I would help out. His friend, Maralyn, was diagnosed with stage four cancer. She didn’t ask for money to be raised for herself. Instead, her lifelong desire was to donate to her favourite organization, Shades of Hope Wildlife Refuge. Sure enough, along with my other students, we put on a show (which Maralyn attended!) and we raised over $6000.00. Founder Gail Lenters says that money will go directly towards a new anesthetic machine and lab equipment that will help them diagnose wildlife patients faster and more accurately.
I was so inspired by Maralyn’s courage and I was also very proud of Mike and my comedy grasshoppers.
Kudos to all volunteers and staff out there who make a difference in this world.

How you can help the homeless in Toronto -every Monday night
For the past five years, every Monday night at 630 pm, Alex Smirnis from City Street Outreach and an army of volunteers take clothing, blankets and food to the homeless. They start near City Hall and make their way through the streets. Alex and his gang help close to 100 people in the core and then they help another 300 around Toronto.
If you would like to donate clothing or make a charitable donation, you can reach Alex at 416- 834-7736 or go to their website at www.torontoblanketministry.webs.com
You can also just turn up at City Hall at 630pm on a Monday night and walk with the group, handing out food and clothing.
If you have clothing or blankets to donate and you live in the GTA, call Alex and he will arrange to get it picked up.
