Over $2 million raised in support of Baycrest’s Centres for Innovations in Aging
Ed Sonshine, CEO of Evening Sponsor RioCan, with Baycrest's newly crowned Dancing Star Honey "Hip Hop" Sherman and dance partner Mikhail Zaslavskiy.
Five remarkably courageous community leaders took to the dance floor in the Grand Ballroom of the Sheraton Centre, on November 4, 2010, culminating in the most highly-talked about and anticipated fundraiser of the year.

Whether they were attracted by the shopping or the food, one thing is certain; all 200 guests at the Women of Baycrest More Passion for Fashion event came out to Yorkville, at the height of Toronto’s International Film Festival, to support women’s brain health and aging. Guests were chauffeured between stores, including Davids Footwear and TNT, in luxury transportation, courtesy of corporate partner Parkview BMW.
