Description

This year, we are hosting our very first hybrid Scrabble for Literacy event, whereby we will encourage guests to register for a round of Scrabble using the app, Scrabble Go or register to play at the live in-person event hosted in Toronto. The highest scoring player from the online tournament and the highest scoring player from the in-person tournament will have a chance to play with celebrity players, and professional Scrabble ringers during our live event in March 2023. This event promises to be full of fun games, entertainment, contests, and celebrity guests while supporting a great cause. Scrabble for Literacy has raised over $4 million for literacy programs in Canada since it’s inception. For more information about the event, visit www.scrabblenightincanada.ca              

In 2022, we had celebrity guests Colin Mochrie and Debra McGrath play in our championship match, and Comedian Elvira Kurt was our host. 

Durin this event we hosted an online auction, in which all proceeds went to Frontier College.
