Pakistan Relief

[mlsintoronto]

On Saturday we will be accepting donations at the gates during the Toronto FC match, in support of relief efforts in Pakistan. We've chosen to support the Canadian Red Cross in this important cause.

You can get more information about the flooding devastation elsewhere...I simply wanted to let you all know.

Importantly, our Canadian Government has pledged to match all donations before Sept 12.

AND, MLSE will match all these donations as well!

So dig deep, and know that your $20 with double matching, will become $60!!

Unfortunately tax receipts will not be available during this effort. If you would like a receipt then go to redcross.ca and donate...your donation WILL be matched by the Government.

THANK YOU in advance for your support and solidarity with the people of Pakistan!

Nicely done. I hope it succeeds beyond everyone's expectations.

wouldn't that be $80 since the Canadian government will be matching our donation as well as MLSE's matching donation?

sadly no - the Government program matches the donations of individuals, not corporations. But 3:1 isn't too shabby!
