Embassy Dinner Raises over $105,000!

Congratulations and a big thank you to all who participated in making the 2009 Embassy Dinner another great success. With the generous support of Ottawa’s diplomatic community, corporate sponsors (Golder Associates and Robinson Consultants), media sponsors (Embassy Newspaper, Roger’s Television, the Ottawa Citizen and FoodMode Magazine) and nearly one hundred volunteers, we’re pleased to announce that this year’s dinner raised over $105,000 dollars despite these tough economic times.

Over the past 15 years, WaterCan’s Embassy Dinner gala fundraiser has raised over 1 million dollars, thereby helping to improve the lives of some 40,000 children, women and men in the poorest regions of the world through access to clean water, basic sanitation and hygiene education.

We thank you all for your continued support. It means the world to us and those who benefit from your generosity half a world away.
