Kick Up Your Heels
This May, the Arthritis Research Foundation hosted Kick Up Your Heels, a wine and shoes fundraiser to beat arthritis. Over 250 guests came together at Koerner Hall to enjoy an elegant evening of wine, shoes and a spectacular fashion show with local Toronto and UHN celebrities strutting their stuff down the runway as models. The evening was a perfect “kick start” to what will now become an annual Spring event.
