MISSISSAUGA, ONTARIO - March 11, 2019 - Septa Pharmaceuticals, Inc. today announced its participation in the Annual Unity Live Cultural Celebration being held at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Secondary School. The event will take place on April 7th, 2011.

Annual Unity Live Cultural Celebration, currently in its 4th year, is a show organized by S.C.A.R. (Students Coalition Against Racism) with a purpose of raising student awareness around cultural diversity and inclusivity. The show aims to empower students to be active global citizens with part of the proceeds benefiting the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. In past years, the show has successfully raised proceeds for Haitian Relief, Covenant House of Toronto, and The Grenada School Building Project. The show features performances by students of St. Francis Xavier under the guidance and supervision of faculty members, Lyanda Jackson and Joy House. Performances ranging from singing, dancing, and drama will be displayed with each performed act demonstrating a cultural and ethnic element.

Septa Pharmaceuticals will be providing door prizes for students in appreciation of their initiatives, talent, and skill. “We are extremely thrilled to be involved in this event”, said Devinder Kumar, President and CEO of Septa Pharmaceuticals Inc. “This show not only celebrates and reflects the root of this great nation, but also mirrors what we hold dear in our own organization - diversity. It is certainly delightful to see the positive initiatives that students at St. Francis Xavier are taking to address the sensitive subject of diversity, inclusivity, and equality. It is acts like these that will undoubtedly inspire and continue to shape our nation and the world toward a progressive future.”
