What is Blind Date with a Star ? Blind Date with a Star is LDANL's major annual fundraising initiative. It is an evening where over 40 participating restaurants, private venues and caterers; a host of local Blind Date Celebrities; and up to 500 guests, all come together for an evening of mystery, anticipation and excitement. The evening commences with a complimentary reception starting at 6:30 pm at The Fairmont Newfoundland, where Blind Dates, guests, and venues are matched. Once matched, the group travels to the venue for a wonderful evening of good food, company and fun. Participants enjoy a wonderful 3-course meal, including appetizer, main course, dessert, and tea and coffee. (Wine or other alcoholic beverages are not included but may be purchased).
Why support Blind Date with a Star ? LDANL has no source of sustaining funding, therefore fundraising is an integral part of our operating revenue and is vital for the continuation of programs and services to children and adults with learning disabilities.
What is the cost of tickets and where can I purchase them ?
Tickets for Blind Date with a Star are $100 each ($70 tax receipt). Participants
