In Loving Memory of Lucas Rushton

We are devestated by the passing of Lucas Rushton. A beloved student of the TD Youth Performance Company, a talented performer, and a fierce friend. Lucas was a source of humour and joy on and offstage. At the request of his family, donations can be made in his memory to the Matt Amyotte Fund, which awards scholarships to members of Neptune's TD Youth Performance Company. 

Attention Existing YPCo Company Members: 

Help us send "Hygge" to our friend and company member to our friend Lucas Rushton and his family. Here's how you can help us celebrate this incredible person and performer:

“The Matt Amyotte fund has helped me be a part of where I feel I belong, without having to worry about costs of things, making me able to focus on art and having a great time! I’m extremely grateful to have been a part of such a fantastic community, and being able to make beautiful things with my friends who I will be with for a long time. I’m very happy that this scholarship exists, for it helps young people learn new things, and make new life long friends."  - Jay Mosher 
“Being in YPCo has been a great learning experience for me and I’ve made so many new friends, and the scholarship has helped me do that. I feel very honoured to have received the scholarship and I’m very happy that it exists to help people be a part of this amazing program.”  - Zac Ellis
