From the Riverdale Share Community Association site:

The Riverdale Share Concert is a diverse holiday celebration held every December in Toronto’s vibrant Riverdale neighbourhood.  Together, residents, businesses, students, volunteers, community leaders, and performers pool their resources and talent and gather under one roof to celebrate their spirit of community and raise money for families in crisis.

Since 1991, the all-volunteer concert has brought together some of Toronto’s most celebrated artists to entertain the community and has raised hundreds of thousands of dollars and truckloads of food for children and families in need.  The event raises money through ticket sales, donations and the generous support of its sponsors.  Local merchants assist by selling the tickets, donating goods and services, and hosting special events.  Dedicated volunteers donate their time and efforts.  Sponsors cover the hard costs of producing the show.

Remember to bring a non-perishable food donation.
