$11,231 !! That’s the amount that was raised for the Ottawa Food Bank at Big Soul Project’s Christmas concerts.
Doing the Ottawa Food Bank math where cash donations give them five times the buying power, this means that $56,155 worth of food will be given to Ottawa families thanks to the generosity of our concert audiences and the matching donation of our very special anonymous donor.
This year’s Christmas concert was once again filled with joyous music, meaningful moments, and even some tears. A highlight was BSP’s stunning rendition of “O Come All Ye Faithful” arranged by our Choir Director extraordinaire, Roxanne Goodman.
Our Carleton Dominion-Chalmers Centre audience leapt to their feet in a spontaneous standing ovation as the choir finished its last note.
Thank you to Ellen McAteer, Sébastien Cimpaye, Zeke Gross, the Deep Groove Band, Roxanne Goodman, and to all of you who joined us in the audience in celebration and song. Until next year!
