100G FOR SHAUN G CELEBRATION CONCERT

Way Doper Events would like to show support for the 100G for Shaun G event happening Tuesday December 14th at the Commodore Ballroom.

REMEMBERING SHAUN G

On October 28th, 2010, Vancouver nightlife scene lost one of its greatest contributors and most well liked and respected personalities. Seemingly without warning, and with stunning speed, Shaun was diagnosed with, and lost a battle to, an extremely rare form of cancer called Angiosarcoma. Anyone lucky enough to have interacted with Shaun Gauthier would agree that his bottomless positivity and charismatic demeanor with be forever missed and never forgotten.

On December 14th, a Massive event is being held at The Commodore Ballroom in his honor, with 100% of proceeds going to the newly formed ‘Shaun G Foundation’, A Vancouver movement to fight cancer that reflects the way Shaun lived his remarkable life.

Needless to say this event should be pretty unforgettable, and its for a very, very worthy cause. So get in the giving spirit, show some support, and come raise your glass with us in toast to the enduring legacy of Shaun G.  More Info/links below.

About the 100G For Shaun G Celebration Concert:

Shaun G was one of Vancouver’s most genuine and positive people. To pay tribute to him, and to raise funds and awareness for cancer, we’re throwing a party in his honour.

The proceeds from this party are going directly to the newly created Shaun G Foundation. The goal for the night is to break $100,000. The Shaun G Foundation will distribute funds to all types of cancer research in Canada, including much needed research for Angiosarcoma, the rare type of cancer Shaun had. 

Shaun’s smile and enthusiasm for life will forever be missed but his courage and positivity will live on through the Shaun G Foundation.
