Pat's Concert

In 2000, when Craig was just 10 years old, he lost his mom, Pat, to a 5-year battle with cancer. Pat spent her final days at Rosedale Hospice. The services, staff and volunteers at Hospice Calgary always stuck with Craig and his family. Pat left behind 5 kids and her husband, Steve. For 10 years, the family ran the Pat McFarlane Cancer Research Foundation. But in 2019, Craig wanted to do something a little different. Pat's Concert was born. Featuring a silent auction, live music and a night of laughter and tears, the concert raises funds for Hospice Calgary's Children's Grief Centre, to help families like Craig's.

​

Between our 5 concerts that have happened, we have raised over $38,000 for the Children's Grief Centre.

Our most recent event was held Oct 19th, 2024 at Tool Shed Brewing with a performance by Melody Stang & DJ Dylan Tate. We raised $14,125 for the Children's Grief Centre.​​​​
