THE GOAL - #VIDS4KIDS
We are attempting raise enough money to donate a Classic Arcade Machine to put on site at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario. We see the joy inducing positive effect these old school games have on folks who come to TARG, we see it all the time, so we figure that the sick kids at CHEO & their families could use some distraction, smiles & high-score challenges to help them stay positive and get through tough times.

WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN #NEVERGIVEUP
Let’s do it together. By attending this fun filled event your PWYC donation will go towards purchasing a high quality 60 in 1 cocktail Classic Arcade Machine to put on site at the CHEO Activity/Playroom.
