‘Rock the Bullet’ raises funds in memory of Shane Gaudreau, who had an opioid addiction and died in 2020
Shane Gaudreau had a big heart, and was always the first person to help others, said his big sister, Amanda Burton.
Hoping to raise awareness of the opioid crisis as well as some funds for those who live with addictions, Burton hosted the third annual Rock the Bullet fundraiser on Aug. 20.The fundraiser was held at their Silver Bullet 2.0 location at the intersection of Lasalle and Falcobridge, and included live entertainment, a penny table and vendors.
Sandul is also known as the founder of the Crosses for Change memorial in downtown Sudbury, where white crosses have been erected in memory of those who have died as a result of the opioid crisis. “It’s really important that the community is supporting us and coming out and learning about and becoming more aware of what is still a stigma, what is still a huge problem,” Sandul said. “The intention of the process was to bring awareness and that awareness needs to continue because we're still having people die of toxic poisonous drugs, and the numbers are higher than ever.”
