More about the event:

The Have a Heart for CANFAR team has just returned from their visit to Northern Secondary School where Juno award-winning artist Keshia Chanté helped us kick off the 2012 Have a Heart for CANFAR campaign!

It was quite a whirlwind day! The morning started off with a visit to the Northern music class, where several students had written meaningful songs about social activism and how it tied into the importance of HIV & AIDS awareness. They performed their fantastic songs for Keshia, the Have a Heart for CANFAR team and the rest of the class.

To wrap up the class, there was a great question and answer period, led by Keshia herself. The Northern students asked Keshia questions about her involvement as the National Youth Ambassador of CANFAR, about the Have a Heart for CANFAR campaign, and why she had decided to become involved in this worthy cause. The students also questioned Keshia about her experiences in the music industry, and how she has used her successes to teach Canadian students the importance of HIV prevention. Keshia answered the questions with enthusiasm – encouraging student engagement and involvement in CANFAR’s youth-based campaign.

As the bell rang for lunch hour, the auditorium quickly filled with other Northern. Hundreds lined up to buy ‘heart-o-grams’ and take pictures with Keshia Chanté. One music class student even asked to have her guitar signed by Keshia! Surrounded by media and adoring fans, Keshia did a fantastic job of focusing all of the hype back towards the cause.

After such a successful kick-off campaign at Northern Secondary School, the Have a Heart for CANFARteam is very excited to see what the 2,500 other schools across the country will be doing for Have a Heart week. Let’s make Have a Heart for CANFAR 2012 our best campaign yet! Please visit our Facebook page to share photos and stories about your school’s campaign.

Fashion Television: Fashion Icon’s Celebrity Style

Keshia Chante — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 05:58:01 +0000

I love Fashion. My grandfather was a very successful tailor in both Europe and Canada & my mother til this day still loves to sew. I remember growing up idolizing my mother’s over the top style. She was like a 70′s glamour girl with a little edge like Sharon Stone in Casino or Michele Phifer in Scarface; furs, crazy jewellery, sheers. I think that’s why I love Donatella Versace so much. Needless to say I love fashion, self expression, intricate embellishments and the world of fantasy. It was gracious of Fashion Television (basically Canada’s Fashion Bible!) to make me apart of their ’Fashion Icons Celebrity Style’ list! I respect their brand so much & I am excited!

I do hope my young followers know that “style” is not about having tons of money to buy expensive clothes or have designer pieces, it’s about having confidence & using clothing as an expression which doesn’t include the digits on a price tag, it’s about what makes YOU comfortable & confident!
