Epilepsy Toronto
Living with seizures is never easy. Little Ben knows. After having two seizures at school, his friends didn't want to have much to do with him. Suddenly, he ate lunch alone, wasn't asked to play road hockey and didn't get invited to sleepovers anymore. He was the exact same kid as before, but others, even his friends, couldn't see past the seizures. Two seizures were all it took to turn his life upside down. And that's why we need your help. The stigma of epilepsy is an added burden to thousands of children just like Ben.

2011 Entertainment features:
Groove to the rock 'n' roll sound of “Shelter”... friends of Epilepsy Toronto who want to make a difference!
"Shelter" gets its name from their unique origin of playing weekly at a homeless shelter run through the "Out of the Cold" program. The original lineup was Tim McDonald (lead guitar), Kent McDonald (vocals/rhythm guitar) and JR Grant (vocals/bass), often joined by other guest musicians. With the recent addition of Patrick Hamilton on drums, they are ready to ROCK! Their adaptations of classic rock covers will get you moving.
