The musical talent and creativity in Chatham-Kent is shining through in the #TogetherAtHome CKHA Foundation Challenge.
The challenge, which is supporting the Foundation’s COVID-19 Healthcare Relief Fund, made the news on CTV as well. See the video, below:
The challenge is inspired by the One World: Together At Home online concert, spearheaded by the Global Citizen group, being held today Saturday, April 18.
The challenge itself has three aspects:
1. Post encouraging lyrics from your favourite Together at Home artist
2. Tag the Foundation and add a link to their COVID-19 Healthcare Relief Fund: https://give.classy.org/ckhacovid19
3. Post and tag three people, organizations or businesses to do the same
Local personalities with Blackburn Radio, including the morning crews from CKSY and CFCO, took part in the challenge. Check out the posts below:
