The inspiration behind the event:
In April 2024, Julie Brown, former radio broadcaster and performer with the Vancouver swing trio The Hot Mammas, was diagnosed with ALS. She immediately began planning a concert to support PROJECT HOPE. She received overwhelming support from the Vancouver music community, with artists donating their time to create a star-studded evening of music for the cause. Thanks to the support of Wave 98.3, Vancouver’s Coolest Vibe, Concert for Project Hope is back for another year of great music and impactful fundraising to further research for treatments, with the ultimate goal of finding a cure for ALS.

Special thanks to Christ Church Cathedral for providing the venue and Wave 98.3 for their sponsorship of this event.
