Building Hope With Beauty, The Miss Universe Canada Charity event organized by the top 12 Miss Universe Canada Delegates of Toronto and the GTA was a perfect way to spend a Thursday evening. Hosted at Gallery 260 on Richmond St E, the event was full of surprises: a fashion show featuring the 12 GTA Finalists, Hosted Akvinta Vodka bar, fantastic art, and an amazing crowd. All proceeds were donated to SOS Children’s Villages Charity, the world’s largest charities for orphaned and abandoned children.
