Nova Scotia Aphasia Association's FIRST Fundraising: Success!

Hurray! The Nova Scotia Aphasia Association's FIRST fundraising was a success. We had 75 people who particated in our Trivia competition. We raised $1,000 to help to deliver our June 15 2011 event...'Hope is a four letter word'. Actually, that was the deposit that we needed for the event!

I believe that we can fill an 800-seat theatre with Nova Scotians who have aphasia, their families, neighbours, co-workers and their communities.

This is an excellent continuing education session for healthcare and community services professionals who work and support with people with aphasia...from an Aphasia Mentor!

Live at 5 on Mon Mar 28, 2011 : Aphasia

CTV Live at 5 is doing a 'spot' on aphasia on Monday March 28, 2011. Watch Live at 5 around 5:10pm (Atlantic Standard Time). Kate and Craig interviewed Goddess Aphasiadite!

CTV is helping us to publicize aphasia and the birth of the Nova Scotia Aphasia Association. Right now, we are preparing for the 'labour' for the birth...must prepare for the labour pains! The Nova Scotia Aphasia Association is 'due' in June 2011.

Our BIG inaugural event for June 2011 is to have Carl McIntyre and 'Aphasia, the movie' come to Halifax, Nova Scotia on June 15 at 7:00. The venue will be the Spatz Theatre at the Citadel High School. We expected that there will be standing room only. Reserve your tickets early!
