OUR TARGET AUDIENCES – Children, Youth and Special Needs Adults
Over two years ago, on March 25, 2006,
Blue Veil Ministry launched its’ first
annual dinner/dance fundraiser. This
event was called ‘Leap of Faith’ and was
not only the launch of Blue Veil’s first CD
release, but was also the opportunity for
Blue Veil to help and assist a MS
recipient, by donating part of the monies
raised at the fundraiser to purchase a
special bed. Today, we've had
the privilege to perform to over 75,000 young people this past year alone,
touring elementary and secondary
schools in the Catholic District
School Boards of York, Toronto, and
just recently Dufferin Peel Regions.
We have also been
privileged enough to run a retreat for elementary students
in grade 7 and 8 supporting their religion program
and helping these students who will be moving forward
into a Secondary school.
With the help of a fourth band member,
David Smith, Blue Veil Ministry performed 13 “Sounds of Christmas” concerts
for over 10
schools in the YCDSB and offered a Magi-cal
performance to all the students, staff and
parents that brought the Christmas story
alive. The “Sounds of Christmas” was also
the band’s 2nd CD release. |
