After the Fire

For those interested in what happens after the fire on Queen Street West there are several things going on. Of all the possible sources it was Tokyo Police Club who brought to my attention the fund set up by the city. You can donate to the victims of the fire (the people who lost everything) at any Scotiabank branch in Toronto.

There are also (at least) two Facebook groups that have been set up. Rebuilding Queen Street West and Tribute to Queen Street West .

The first, of what I'm sure will be many, events has been set up for this Sunday. Queen Street Relief will take place at The Annex Wreckroom
794 Bathurst @ Bloor; upstairs Across from the Bathurst Subway Station from 4pm-7pm.
WHAT: Kindly donate:
clothing-inner and outer wear;house hold items-from kettles to towels ; cutlery to toiletries; toys; all ages and sizes;coffee,tea, mugs;pet supplies. Just think: what do you NEED to get through the day?

BUSINESS DONATIONS: Please call Your local United Way.

Monetary Donations: Call your local Scotiabank "Queen Street Fire Fund"
.If you know of other events, groups etc., please let me know and I'll pass along the info.
