Some of Edmonton’s most powerful voices — including Ann Vriend, Brenna MacQuarrie, Cayley Thomas, Chloe Albert and Julie Adams — are teaming up to raise money for The Lantern Fund, which trains teachers in Afghanistan.

The benefit, organized for Canadian Women for Women in Afghanistan, takes place this Sunday, Nov. 30 at Yellowhead Brewery,  10229 105th St., from 6:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.

Admission is $10 or $20 (pay what you can). All proceeds will go to The Lantern Fund, which is “committed to training at least 5,000 teachers from 2013-2018, at a costs of $400,000 per year—that’s less than $400 per teacher.”

The Edmonton Journal‘s illustrious food writer Liane Faulder will host the event, which also includes a silent auction and Afghan market.

Other performers include Ashanti Karimah Marshall, Julie Jonas, Melody Lovejoy, Paula Perro and REND featuring Carol-Lynne Quinn.
