SUMMARY:WINGS Make Believe Ball
DESCRIPTION:Step into a night of elegance\, purpose\, and celebration at the Make Believe Ball\, one of Edmonton’s most anticipated fundraising events. Following a sold out inaugural event that exceeded all expectations\, we are thrilled to welcome guests back for an unforgettable evening at the iconic Fairmont Hotel Macdonald. \nEnjoy a gourmet dinner\, spectacular live entertainment from The Grand Dueling Pianos\, an exclusive silent auction\, and inspiring moments that highlight the life changing impact of Wings. Every ticket purchased helps provide safe housing and comprehensive support for women and children rebuilding their lives after experiencing family violence. \nBehind the glamour of the masquerade lies a powerful message. For many survivors\, wearing a mask has been a means of protection and survival. Wings walks alongside families as they begin to remove those masks\, reclaim their voices\, and rediscover safety\, healing\, and hope. \nYour presence at the Make Believe Ball is more than a night out. It is an investment in brighter futures\, stronger families\, and a community where every woman and child has the opportunity to thrive. \nTogether\, we can continue breaking cycles and building futures. A lifeline for a lifetime.
