The Canadian Foundation for AIDS Research (CANFAR) is excited to announce the 11th anniversary of one of our milestone fundraising events, Can You Do Lunch? (CYDL?).
Being held on Friday, April 28th, 2023 at the Four Seasons Hotel in Toronto, the 11th anniversary of Can You Do Lunch? will shine a spotlight on our nation’s youth and explore the reality of Canada’s fractured and incomplete sexual health awareness landscape, which is leading to an increase in STBBIs among Canadians aged 15 to 24. This year will welcome a panel of youth, allies and PLHIV for an in-conversation about Canada’s lagging sex ed curriculum.
This year’s event is co-chaired by Lily Li and James Milonas. We thank CYDL? Founder and Honorary Chair, Janice O’Born, C.M.O., Ont., Chairperson of the Printing House Charitable Office, and our CYDL? committee for their tireless work.
CANFAR is grateful to welcome back sponsors Mantella Corporation, BMO, Labatt, The P. Austin Family Foundation, The Printing House, Four Seasons Hotel, Toronto and Air Canada.
