On November 27th, Salle Jean-Paul-Morin was home to the multicultural fundraiser Night Around the World.

Organized by the Event Planning graduating students, Night Around the World took the guests for an expedition all over the globe. From Mexico and Korea to Italy and England, guests danced and sang the night away.

They enjoyed a varied menu provided by sponsors David’s Tea, Starbucks, Café 92, Don Taco, Pointe Colombie, La Taqueria, Belle Corée and Traiteur Brera.

Entertainment showcased baladi dancer Emelle Massariol, First Nation singer Anachnid, and the McGill Savoy Society performing exerts of the opera Ruddigore.

A karaoke hour and a raffle completed the night, with prizes from St-James Theater, Rialto Theater, Parasuco, La Virunga and La Boutique Point G.

Goodfood coupon worth up to $87 were distributed at the door.

A total of $1111 was raised and subsequently donated to the LCI Education Foundation.

The foundation’s mission is to promote student retention and children’s literacy, particularly in the developing countries in which LCI Education (of which LaSalle College is a member) operates.
