Ed Sheeran donates $10K to Sask. children’s hospital

Ed Sheeran’s recent tour stop in Saskatchewan was about more than just music.

The pop musician grabbed headlines after a sold-out show at Saskatoon’s SaskTel Centre in July, but it was an anonymous gift that made a lasting impression.

Brynn Boback-Lane, president and CEO of Jim Pattison Children’s Hospital Foundation, said she heard from the team at SaskTel Centre before the show.

Apparently Sheeran wanted to know how he could help the hospital, which is currently under construction in Saskatoon.
