"Students In Song" provides our students with an opportunity to share their gifts with the Calgary Catholic community to raise awareness and funds to support the people of Ukraine. The proceeds collected this evening are being donated directly to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation.
Thank you to CSSD Choral Directors, Andrea Ciona, Robin Dominey, Terry Edwards, and Lisa Stelmack, for bringing their students together for this event.
Thank you to St. Gerard Catholic Church for giving us access to the space, free of charge, allowing all funds collected to go directly to Ukrainian relief efforts.
