Saskatchewan artist fundraising to help family whose son has genetic disease

A Regina based artist is using his platform to fundraise in hope of helping a young boy with a genetic disease and his family.

After being contacted by Anna Laidlaw, who happens to be his old high school friend, Andrew Salgado jumped at the opportunity to help her and her family out.

“We were like buddies. I only did a semester at Campbell before moving to a different high school but that’s where we met. I think there was sort of like that kindred nature in each of us and clung to her,” Salgado explained.
