Those in attendance will also have the opportunity to contribute in a fundraiser for W.I.S.H. Inc. where plush Happy Monkeys will be sold. W.I.S.H. provides safe and healthy second-stage housing, counselling, and support programs that promote physical and emotional healing and personal growth for women and their children.
