Sangeetham for Syria is a fundraiser concert that will be held on May 7th at the new Thamil Isai Kalaamanram Hall. It will feature Toronto musicians, as well as an array of classical dance performances. Through this initiative we hope to raise $10 000 that will be donated to the Ryerson University Lifeline Syria Challenge.
Ryerson University Lifeline Syria Challenge is the Ryerson community’s effort to support the goals of the Lifeline Syria group. This was an organization that was created in response to the tragedies of the refugee crisis in Syria. The group recruits, trains and assists sponsor groups as they welcome and aid Syrian refugees coming to Canada as permanent additions to the GTA. This community engagement initiative helps Canada welcome a new group of future Canadians, carrying on a proud tradition of welcoming refugees to this country. Lifeline Syria: supports and intensifies Canada’s refugee resettlement commitment, allows ordinary people to get involved in helping with this historic humanitarian crisis, assists Syrian families in the Greater Toronto Area in reuniting with their friends and family, and helps give refugees an opportunity to restart their lives in Canada. Your support to this organization will allow it to carry on its work and fund the many sponsor groups that it is connecting to refugee families seeking to come to Canada.
Join us as we come together as a community to support the Ryerson University Lifeline Syria Challenge in a night of classical carnatic performances. We are looking forward to seeing you there.
