Cineplex Entertainment, via their Front Row Centre Events, is pleased to announce a new program focused on families – Family Favourites. Each week, a different family movie will be offered exclusively at participating Cineplex theatres on Saturday mornings at 11 a.m. (local time) at a discounted admission price of $2.50 for all ages. A portion of all ticket sales will be donated to the Starlight Children’s Foundation.

“We wanted to create a regularly scheduled program that mom, dad and even the grandparents can enjoy with the kids,” said Pat Marshall, Vice President, Communications and Investor Relations, Cineplex Entertainment. “Families can share and celebrate the experience of taking a child to their first movie in a theatre or the return of a beloved movie back on the big screen with the selections that will be a part of our Family Favourites program.”

Tickets are only $2.50 and can be purchased at participating theatre box offices, online at www.cineplex.com/family or our mobile site m.cineplex.com

 

Regardless of the party theme, location or size, ECHOage adds a meaningful component of charity giving – not just receiving – to traditional birthday celebrations, giving children a practical, hands-on way to make a difference at the time of their birthdays. With 'One Gift, One Cause' as the company's mantra, the site pools gifts of money from guests so that a portion goes towards one special gift for the birthday child, and a portion goes to a single charitable cause of the birthday child's choice – making it easier than ever for parents and children to give and receive.

It's easy to ECHOage any birthday party, no matter where or when it will be held. Parents and children planning a party begin by choosing from a variety of creative and fun online invitations through echoage.com (be sure you select Starlight as the charity of choice!).

Invitations are sent via email and instead of bringing a wrapped gift, guests are asked to make a secure online donation of $10 to $30. After deducting a small administration fee to sustain the cost of the service, ECHOage sends half of the party proceeds to the child's chosen charity, and remits the other half to the party's host towards the purchase of one really special and more meaningful gift for the child, from all of his or her party guests.
The child receives his or her dream gift while learning valuable lessons about giving and quality versus quantity. The host even receives a tax receipt for the portion donated to charity.

The ECHOage Tracker easily allows party hosts to send invites, track RSVPs, and send thank you notes and reminders. The ECHOage Tracker even gathers important parent contact details and critical allergy information about guests, underscoring the site's commitment to helping children and parents be worry-free at birthday parties.

 

You can help brighten the day of a seriously ill child with a smile by recognizing important individuals in your life. In lieu of gifts, please consider a donation through the Starlight Book of Smiles.

With your support, we will be able to continue to transform the lives of seriously ill children and their families through imaginative programs that educate, uplift spirits and foster a sense of community.

The Starlight Book of Smiles offers unique and extraordinary gifts that give back – like passes for a family to a Starlight Escapes event or opportunities to send a Teddy Bear to a hospitalized child.

In just 4 easy steps, you can send a smile on its way to a seriously ill child and their family. Giving will never feel so good!
