Bridge of Compassion, an organisation spearheaded by Cara Burke of Showtime Services, will stage fundraiser “Sip & Sing: Jamaica Relief Edition” this Sunday, December 21, at Tiara & Tuxedo Event Space in Woodbridge, Ontario, Canada.

This vibrant karaoke and games night is dedicated to raising essential funds for a young family in Whitehouse, Westmoreland, Jamaica, with proceeds supporting the construction of a two-bedroom house for a single mother. The family is currently facing unstable living conditions following ongoing hardship.

The event promises an evening of entertainment, community spirit, and philanthropy. Hosted by the energetic Linky Links, guests can expect a high-energy atmosphere filled with music, games, and the opportunity to make a tangible difference. The cost for entry is $30, with tickets available on Eventbrite or at the door.

In addition to the musical festivities, refreshments will be available for purchase, and finger foods will be provided while supplies last. Attendees are also encouraged to bring non-perishable food and diaper donations to further support the relief efforts.

This event is made possible through the generous support of community partners and sponsors, including: Uncle Delroy’s, Take a Sip, Ocha Restaurants, Tiara & Tuxedo Event Space, Jamaica House Jerk, Cookee Cakes & Treats, Showtime Services, Life’s Deceit Podcast, Rize 2 Recover, Royalty Helping Hands, Louie Rankin Foundation, Matt’s BBQ, and Strength of 2morrow.

“We invite everyone to come out, have fun, and support a cause that truly matters. Every ticket and donation goes directly toward providing relief to this single mother facing hardship in Jamaica,” said Cara Burke, the event curator.

Elizabeth Hollo and Stephanie Pereira-Ferreira, owners of Tiara & Tuxedo, shared: “We are delighted to be a part of this initiative, especially at this time of year. Having the opportunity to help in Jamaica whilst here in Canada is truly a privilege.” Jenelle Simpson says -“ignoring the noise and politics is key we rather focus on the compassion and plan to offer long term assistance for those who need it is what we’re interested in.”

Bridge of Compassion is dedicated to providing aid and support to families in need, fostering community connections through charitable events and direct relief efforts.
