Rush To Donate Funds for Fellow Canadian Musicians in Need

With Rush about to play a number of shows in Canada during July, the band have just announced that they will donate $1 from every ticket sale from five of those Canadian dates to benefit the Unison Benevolent Fund:

Long known for their support of various philanthropic causes, Rush have generously offered to support Unison by donating $1 from each ticket sold at 5 of their upcoming Canadian dates.

Those dates are:

July 6 Hamilton, Ontario - Copp's Coliseum

July 12 & 14 Halifax, Nova Scotia - Metro Centre

July 24 Calgary, Alberta - Scotiabank Saddledome

July 26 Vancouver, British Columbia - Pepsi Live at Rogers Arena

The Unison Benevolent Fund is a non-profit charitable organization that provides counselling, emergency relief, and benefit programs for those in the Canadian music community who face personal or professional challenges due to hardship, illness, unemployment or economic difficulties.

Whether it’s a favourite song or an album by a treasured artist, music impacts our lives. Every recording and show requires an invisible network of professionals working collectively to create all the music that is important to you. The majority of this team are self-employed or freelance contractors. They usually live without the support of a safety net and when a crisis occurs its impact can be devastating. Thanks to Rush, Unison will change that.
