Some evenings are about more than music. On Saturday, November 7, jazz singer Roberta Hunt and her friends will take the stage at a charity benefit party, with every ticket helping children and families in our community.

An evening in style

Guests can look forward to live jazz by Roberta Hunt & Friends, complimentary wine and appetizers, a surprise door prize and special guests. At the heart of the evening is a silent art auction featuring paintings donated by leading local artists, a chance to take home an original work while supporting a good cause.

Who the evening helps

All proceeds go to Canadians for Children at Health Risk (CCHR), a community, volunteer-based organization that works to improve the well-being and quality of life of families with children, with a focus on education, health protection and prevention. Roberta Hunt has supported CCHR before, donating all contributions from an earlier online jazz concert to the organization.

Tickets

  • $40 in advance, by e-transfer to promotekidshealth@yahoo.com, before November 1
  • $50 at the door, cash only, after November 1

When: Saturday, November 7, 2026 (time to be announced)
