There is so much going on I hardly know where to start... First here's a sneak peek at our new campaign for ImmunizeBC. These have not even been sent to print yet, so this is Hello Cool World insiders first glance at our Zoom ads launching later in April. During the past two months our photographer Nancy Bleck has photographed over 40 real people whose stories will soon be seen on the new ImmunizeBC website. 
And that's not all, April is off and running. First off: Our #4Eva movement for organ donation PSA for BC Transplant is now airing on TV! Watch for news on this campaign soon. You can see it on 65RedRoses.com. And next week LACE is in again for spring, this time we will be at Vancouver Fashion Week. Fashion Week is followed by Organ Donation Week then Immunization Awareness Week, and then there's the Opt Ready For Pleasure Gala -- overlapping with Hot Docs and DOXA where we are community partners on the world premiere of Raw Opium...I'm out of breath... read on!

It's been almost one year since our beloved Eva lost her lifelong battle with cystic fibrosis. To mark the anniversary, the Canadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation (Vancouver Chapter) and the Massey Theatre are hosting a benefit concert on February 11th. (Facebook Event)
Local musicians include headliner Dan Mangan, who provided the closing credits song to Markvoort’s award winning film, as well as The Zolas, Hannah Georgas and Corrina Corrina - all of whom are performing for free! Tickets to the event are $34 (purchase here) and all proceeds will go to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation in Eva's name.
Bella is the newest addition to Hello Cool World, enlisting for the cause at the end of 2010. A graduate of BCIT's Broadcast Communications for TV program, she's worked in all aspects of production and has a knack for new media & technology.

...now let's see if this Ready for Pleasure update sells some gala tickets... (hint, hint!)
We are thrilled to announce Sweet Soul Burlesque as entertainment for Opt's 50th Anniversary Celebration. As if the bubbly and buffet weren't enough to entice you, I'm sure a troupe of scantiliy clad ladies will do the trick!

From ribbon staffs to giant venus fly traps to life-sized jack-in-the boxes, Sweet Soul strives to break the mold by creating fun, ground-breaking burlesque events that are of high production value and unequaled sassiness. The troupe works together to inspire each other and other women / lovers of women to enjoy themselves and their sexuality and to rekindle their sense of playfulness and confidence.
