Feist Fall Concert Tour for Charities

Feist is on tour across Canada this fall and is asking for people who attend her shows to bring food, and buy merch in support of three different charities:
"Feist is inviting you to bring more than your Fall coat to her upcoming Canadian tour; unlike many party hosts, she is asking you to bring food. The Feist concert food drive (in tandem with the Canadian Association of Food Banks) will take place at each tour stop along her upcoming 13-city tour. Feist encourages attendees to bring food donations and/or monetary contributions to help benefit their local Community Food Bank. Each month more than 720,000 Canadians access food banks, of which 39 per cent are children. Those who contribute will be rewarded with a chance to win a special prize from Feist.

Feist has also announced that all proceeds from her merchandise sales throughout the tour, will be donated to the following Canadian-based initiatives: CARE Canada, MSF (Doctors Without Borders) and War Child Canada. We will be posting more information on all of these initiatives in the weeks that follow, but please spread the word."
