Celebrating the words that Sister MacNamara spoke many years ago, ‘No child who does not want to be alone, should ever have to be’… at a fundraising dinner. The No Child Alone Dinner was created to celebrate the first 40 years of Rossbrook House in 2016. Since then, the Foundation has held a few more dinners, with the latest happening just last week.
Autumn kept the evening on track as the emcee. Both she and Asher shared their inspiring experiences with Rossbrook House. A group of participants made their own hand drums to play an honour song at the beginning of the evening with Matt Mousseau.
Thank you to honorary chair Phil Chiappetta and ED Patty Mainville for helping the guests to better understand what Rossbrook House is about.
In addition to the silent auction and door prize, auctioneer Leighton Klassen led us through a fun auction to raise funds for the Safe Rides Home program.
Guests took home gifts made by the students from the off-campus school programs and Rossbrook House drop-in participants.
Thank you to all who attended in support of Rossbrook House programs, and to the Dinner sponsors and corporate table purchasers. rossbrookhouse.ca/no-child-alone-dinner-2024/

The participants and students from the three off-campus school programs made the gifts that each guest at the No Child Alone Dinner received last night. They drew colourful designs of what makes them happy while thinking of what Rossbrook House means to them. There were flowers, and references to sports, animals, and more.
Thank you to FortWhyte Alive for providing the cut wood pieces. Thank you to the children and youth for sharing their talents! ... See MoreSee Less
