Celine visits Opportunity Village

[Davey84]

Celine Dion showed her support for Opportunity Village yesterday by attending its biggest fundraiser, Magical Forest in Las Vegas November 26,2014

 

“We have fallen in love with this wonderful organization and the brave individuals it serves,” Dion said. “Opportunity Village has been working so hard for the past 50 years, helping thousands of adults with disabilities and their families. They deserve international exposure and I am honored to be able to help them deliver their message on behalf of people with profound disabilities.”

 

Fundraiser to help people with intellectual disabilities-

Grammy award-winning Celine Dion has decided to lend her support to Opportunity Village, a non-profit organization serving people with intellectual disabilities in Southern Nevada. With her donation, she will touch the lives of thousands of people with disabilities and their families.

 

Dion’s commitment will include a personal donation of 3,700 seats to her show in the custom-built, 4,100-seat Colosseum at Caesars Palace(A New Day ...2004). All concert proceeds will go to Opportunity Village. In addition, Dion and her husband, Rene Angelil will make a personal donation of $150,000. The proceeds from the concert seats plus the personal donation will total approximately $500,000. Caesars Palace will also donate 400 seats to Opportunity Village to solicit sponsorship. All contributions will be used to help build a new $21 million campus for intellectually disabled adults in southwest Las Vegas.

It might be scattered over many topics, but I missed this part. Since this is the 'official' topic; what is the source of this, that she donated ten years ago and not for an upcoming concert?

 

Anyway, this appearance is no bad news; it was a public performance all together.
