A Golden Evening To Remember
On September 25, 2026, we celebrated an unforgettable Golden Evening to honour National Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. Arjan, our wonderful Noble Lord of Wines, and his fantastic colleagues from Wine & Social, kept us all delighted with 4 wine tastings paired with savory bites from Red Seal Dining, and a variety of local desserts from Ollia Macarons, Creme Cream Puffs, Made by Marcus ice cream, and cake pops from Dipped & Delicious. Oh Wow Popcorn supplied us kettle corn, and Chair Flair worked their magic to transform the space into a glittering golden paradise.
Our community gathered to raise their glasses to the brave families who are in the middle of the storm, and together we raised an incredible $51,549! This enables us to support families dealing with childhood cancer with necessary items when they are in the hospital, when they need it most. But what does $51,549 actually mean?
It means more support for families navigating one of the hardest things they will ever face: childhood cancer.
- It means helping families with the everyday expenses that become overwhelming during treatment
- It means helping cover things like meals, parking, transportation and other costs that can quickly add up when a child is in and out of the hospital
- It means helping families who need to travel for treatment access support with things like flights, accommodations and transportation
- It means helping parents be there for their child without having to carry every financial burden alone
- And it means being there for families during some of the most difficult moments of their lives, including when they are facing the loss of a child.
The impact of A Golden Evening doesn’t end when the last glass is cleared or the music stops.
It continues in hospital rooms.
In family homes.
On the road to treatment.
In moments of uncertainty.
And in the moments when a family simply needs to know they aren’t alone.
$51,549 is more than a number.
It represents real support for real families facing childhood cancer.
We’d like to extend a huge and heartfelt thank you to all of our guests, donors, and generous sponsors – you are so appreciated. Thank you for being part of our team. We couldn’t do what we do without you.
