The cure for the common social life

The 5th Annual Yaletown Street Party

On Friday evening, the Yaletown Street Party, hosted by the OPUS Hotel, took on an African theme to benefit UNICEF’s Unite for Children, Unite Against AIDS Campaign.

With such notables as UNICEF’s Nigel Fisher and Alison Lawton receiving a $50,000 cheque on behalf of UNICEF, delivered by OPUS’ John Evans and Global TV’s Chris Gailus giving the acknowledgement, the party certainly had an upscale flare.
