President’s Message


Dear Members of Tanzanite Toronto,

40 years ago I had a vision to organize a Tanzanite. We have been successful for the last 38 years. COVID broke our chain of success. I wanted to organize the 40th anniversary to remember all our Tanzanite members who passed away during COVID.

It’s been a difficult venture as all costs have greatly increased for halls and other expenses due to inflation.

I am asking to support our anniversary by sponsoring or donating to this event. All sponsors and donors will be acknowledged. We are asking for talented musicians to come and jam at this function, if interested please contact Greg D’Souza at (647)447 5865 or gresads@gmail.com

In order for Tanzanite to continue we are looking for a new President for 2024, if interested please contact a committee member.

Last but not least I would like to acknowledge all past presidents who have made Tanzanite happen for the last 38 years.

Thank you

Arnold Mendes
