Roses are red, violets are blue, do we know how to have fun? Oh, yes, we do!
Children and youth enjoyed the Valentine Dance at Rossbrook House last Friday. It included a photo booth that made it even more special. Some participants dressed up in their finery for the occasion and all had a great time dancing with their friends, taking fun photos and having snacks. Thank you to the staff who helped to make this such a fun night!

Last Friday, Rossbrook House Foundation held its first-ever Radiothon. So many generous donors showed their hearts and raised funds for programs and activities for the children and youth who drop in to Rossbrook House. Every day, up to 80 participants make their way to Rossbrook House to find their friends, have a meal and take part in programs. Donor support is an important part of helping Rossbrook House keep its doors open 365 days a year.
THANK YOU!

No Child Alone Dinner | Thursday, April 24, 2025
In 1976 Sister Geraldine MacNamara and a group of inner city young people created Rossbrook House, a neighbourhood drop-in centre with a simple mission: “No child who does not want to be alone, should ever have to be.”
