Our 2022 Charity of Choice–Moving Forward Family Services
Our 5th annual Christmas fundraiser held on Dec 9 was a huge success with over 250 attendees that came together to mingle and network, and most importantly, to contribute to vitally important local initiatives.
Just like previous years, this years event was packed full of amazing food, DJ, prizes and entertainment. When you attend our fundraisers, you are not just enjoying a Christmas party full of amazing entertainment, drool-worthy food, open bar, DJ and exciting prizes; you are encapsulating the real meaning of Christmas, of that of giving – giving the gift of hope to countless victims of domestic violence.
We were thrilled to support Moving Forward Family Services– a non-profit society offering free short-term and affordable long-term counselling options to underserved communities across Canada and a check of $5,500 was donated.
Public services are designed to help as many people as possible in the shortest amount of time. They also tend to be restrictive in who they serve and typically have long wait times. Private services are more open with minimal waits but are expensive. Moving Forward attempts to bridge the gap between the two models by offering low-cost services for long-term healing. Moving Forward offers free short-term and affordable long-term counselling options to underserved communities across Canada via in-person, telephone, and online platforms. Funds raised by Touching Lives Foundation directly contributed to MFFS supplementing its existing resources and creating new ones.
We thank all our sponsors, community partners, friends and family for their unwavering support and look forward to continuing our good work.
