Inaugural Awearness Event

Awearness, a unique event where guests have the opportunity to buy fabulous designer clothing at discounted prices, was held for the first time this spring at the Liberty Grand. Founders and chairs Elana Waldman and Michelle Levy greeted society ladies, celebrities, and VIP’s. Over $185,000 was raised to support ovarian cancer research at Princess Margaret Hospital. The remaining clothing will be posted on eBay to raise more dollars for PMH. The link to the eBay auction will be posted soon at www.awearnesscanada.com
