On May 30th 2010 Team Canada Healing Hands, a group of rehabilitation medicine professionals, held a fundraiser at Greenfield's Pub in Ottawa. The team was raising money to send medical teams to Haiti to provide services to the people of Haiti and provide training for local rehab professionals to help deal with the massive need since the January 2010 earthquake. With the acute phase of earthquake relief over, attention is turning to the long term needs of the population devastated by the quake. Services such as prosthetics and orthotics along with specialized long term treatments for spinal cord injury and traumatic brain injury are some of the services needed in the area. The benefit raised nearly $7000.00 with 100% of the proceeds going to support these teams and their important work. OttawaTonite.com was pleased to cover this event and raise awareness of this team in Ottawa. The show featured Luc Leduc the Duke of Magic and music from local bands Shotgun in the Ambulance, Monday I Retire, EFARM and Ridin' Shotgun.
