The Charlottetown Festival is now collecting non-perishable food items for the Upper Room Food Bank at all performances of The British Invasion: A Musical Revue.
The summer months are often the most difficult for food banks, and unfortunately the Upper Room is no exception. Their supply level is currently only half of that of July 2006, and demand usually increases in August. Last year, the Upper Room supplied 431 households in July and 490 in August.
Patrons can place their donations in the collection bin in the lower foyer. The Charlottetown Festival thanks their donors – Islanders and visitors alike – in advance for participating in this simple way to give back to the community.
For The British Invasion: A Musical Revue tickets and show times, please visit www.confederationcentre.com. The Charlottetown Festival and The British Invasion are sponsored by APM group. Media sponsors for The Festival are The Guardian, CBC-TV and CBC Radio.
