Proud Sponsor of THREE TO BE's CONNECT Event 

We are a Proud Champion Sponsor of THREE TO BE's 2nd Annual CONNECT Event which will be held on October 13, 2016. Monies raised support Three To Be's initiatives towards innovative research, education, therapies, and programs for the broad spectrum of childhood neurological disorders.

This year's CONNECT Keynote Speaker is Christine Elliott, Ontario's Patient Ombudsman. Business leaders, philanthropists, professionals and special guests come together with leadership donors and supporters to celebrate and strengthen the connection that allows THREE TO BE to make an impact on the lives of so many affected by childhood brain disorders.

Proceeds from CONNECT will be directed towards a groundbreaking and high profile study called Child-Bright, a pan-Canadian study that focuses on the "whole" child - from brain repair and early interventions to improved outcomes and community supports for children with neurological disorders. THREE TO BE is a leading funder of this 5 year, $25 million study, along with the Canadian Institutes for Health Research and other renowned institutions across Canada.

 

The Famous Smile From The 1960s

In 1963, American commercial artist Harvey Ball put yellow and black together in a simple design. The result has since become world's best-known emoticon - the smiley face. It's the international symbol for good will and good cheer.

But the more the smiley became commercialized over the years, the more the iconic image's original meaning become lost. In 1999, Ball decided to take action to preserve the impact of his design and declared the first day of every October as World Smile Day. Ball died in 2001, but the tradition has continued through the sponsorship of the Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation.

Starting in Ball's hometown of Worcester, Massachusetts and emanating from an unknown number of locations around the globe, this year's World Smile Day will feature a smorgasbord of events, contests, performances and other initiatives - all designed to promote smiles, kindness, and good cheer internationally.

Individuals, communities, schools, businesses and organizations worldwide will be participating. This year, it's your chance to experience this extraordinary annual event which is sure to bring plenty of positive emotions to both givers and recipients.

Whether it's delivering meals to the needy, sharing your smiles on social media, smiling to strangers you pass on October 7th or some other way you can think of to share positive interactions, Gluckstein Lawyers encourages you to get out there any make someone's day, starting with a simple smile!
