All proceeds from this concert will go to the Grandmothers to Grandmothers Campaign of the Stephen Lewis Foundation, which supports grandmothers ("Gogos" in Zulu) raising a generation of children orphaned by the AIDS pandemic in 15 African countries.

Canadians have raised more than $27 million for the campaign, which supports community-based organizations that provide necessities such as school fees and uniforms, counselling for grandmothers and orphaned children, and micro-credit loans. The East Van Gogos is one of more than 250 such groups across Canada.

Join the East Van Gogos for this musical event in partnership with the Rogue Folk Club. The evening features the always-inspiring vocal harmonies of TRIVO, with Karla Mundy, Brian Tate and Dawn Pemberton (pictured) as well as timely songs of engagement by FRASER UNION. Come ready to parlay your “small change” into big change by participating in the raucous, live loonie auction, where every auction item will cost you only a loonie!
