Crossing the Line: Comedy Event to Build Brandon's Transitional Housing Facility
Join the John Howard Society of Brandon on November 16th as we cross the line together and make a lasting impact on our community.
Transitional housing is more than just a place to stay; it's a transformative stepping stone towards a brighter future. With your support, we can provide individuals with complex housing challenges such as transitioning out of incarceration the stable housing they need for successful reintegration. We have received support from the Federal government ($5 million), the Provincial government ($4 million), and the City of Brandon, which has generously contributed land and a property tax grant. Now, we need your help to raise the final $1 million needed to build the 24-unit facility.
What to Expect:
- Feature Comedy Roast: Join us for a hilarious feature comedy roast of Mayor Jeff Fawcett. It's all in good fun, and Mayor Fawcett is a great sport, helping us raise funds with a smile!
- Progressive 50/50 Draws: Don't miss the chance to participate in our progressive 50/50 draws with three exciting opportunities to win: October 1st, November 1st, and the Grand Jackpot Draw on November 16th at the event! Get your tickets at: raffle.link/johnhoward
- Dunk Tank: Test your aim and dunk local personalities for a good cause!
- Silent Auction: Bid on amazing items generously donated by local businesses and individuals, with every dollar raised contributing directly to our housing facility.
- Delicious Appetizers: Enjoy a delightful array of appetizers throughout the evening.
- Cash Bar: Raise a glass and toast to a brighter future with our cash bar serving a variety of beverages.
We look forward to sharing this incredible evening with you!
