TORONTO — Fans of Glee star Cory Monteith, who was found dead Saturday in a Vancouver hotel room, can honour him by supporting a community initiative that was close to his heart.

Monteith was instrumental in helping sisters Maureen Webb and Donalda Weaver launch Project Limelight.

A few nights before his death, the 31-year-old actor had dinner at East of Main Café  (where profits are used to fund Project Limelight) with a group that included Webb, a casting director who encouraged a young Monteith to pursue acting.

Donations can be made through the Project Limelight website or by mail to: Project Limelight Society, 225 E. Georgia Street, Vancouver, B.C., V6A 1Z6.
