Victoria Banks headlined the first annual Concert of Hope recently raising 100,000 for the Moose Jaw Health Foundation.
Banks set the tone for the evening with a rousing rendition of Melissa Etheridge's "I Stand For Life". Surrounded on stage by local breast cancer survivors, Banks brought the audience to their feet when she punched her fist in the air and took a stand against breast cancer.
"My family has been profoundly affected by Breast Cancer." Banks reveals, "I have watched three of my loved ones fight through this disease. It's a battle that leaves physical and psychological scars, it tests our faith and challenges our dignity. I feel very blessed to have had the opportunity to contribute my voice to the fight and to raise funds for this worthy cause."
Filled with music and video testimony, the evening far surpassed the organizers goal of raising $20,000 for the cause.
