"Five emerging Canadian philanthropists wear brilliant holiday fashion"



The headline reads like something you might hear on CBC Radio's carefully funny This Is That. But nope, it is an article from this weekend's Globe and Mail.

What have we to learned?

That philanthropy is intergenerational:

“It was something that was really important to both of us, to show the transition of a cause and how two generations can be supportive of it,” says Jen McCain.

That people can be herded:

“It’s fun for me to put people in a room and see what happens. What’s the worst that could happen? They don’t have a good time? They’ll get over it!” says Barbara Frum.

That:

“It’s okay not to be okay," says Meghan Yuri Young.

That you can have it all:

“I love traditional, but I think you can be contemporary too, and excel at both," says Tanner Kidd.

That the Toronto society scene is:

“not part of my world,” says Sage Paul.
