Easter Seals
Trish has been a feature sports superstar at the dinner, and has assisted in promoting the charity. She says; "I think it is wonderful that so many sports stars participate in this event, but the real stars of the evening are the Easter Seals Provincial Ambassadors, who are Easter Seals kids that are chosen to represent the organization for the year. It is truly inspiring to meet these kids and with the help of the help of the organization, see how much they can accomplish".
