Walk a Mile In Her Shoes

Join us and help make a difference! 

About the event…Walk A Mile in Her Shoes® combines big hearts with big feet and brings the whole community together for a greatcause. The event premise is simple: men walk down Front Street, Belleville in women’s shoes, raising eyebrows and funds in support of The Royal LePage Shelter Foundation and Three Oaks: Quinte’s Shelter for Women and their children. 

There is an old saying “You can’t really understand another person’s experience until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.” This international men’s march asks men to literally walk one mile (or in our case one kilometre) in women’shigh heeled shoes. It’s not easy walking in these shoes, but it’s fun and gets the community aware of and talking about something that’s really difficult to talk about: violence (physical, verbal and sexual assault) against women.

It demonstrates that men are willing and able to be courageous partners with women in making the world a safer place. Someone you know or care about may have been or may become the victim of violence. Funds raised by participating in Walk A Mile in Her Shoes® will support local programs that will help the lives of women and girls forever.

Another successful Guardian Angel Gala has come and gone. This year was our best yet, with a gross amount of $160,000 raised for the Quinte Children’s Foundation. The contemporary Asian themed evening started with a champagne reception as guests appreciated the decor complete with paper lanterns, orchids and beautifully set tables orchestrated by Liz Hicks and her committee.  The delicious dinner with a slightly Asian flair was once again provided by the Banquet Centre.  Boyd Sullivan kept the attendees entertained throughout the live auction and the evening was rounded off with dancing to the music of the Maureen Brown Band.  Our Guardian Angel, Peter Knutson spoke passionately about his selfless contributions to the children of our community.  As out going chair I would like to thank everyone on all of the committees for helping to make the last 2 years so rewarding and successful. Thank you also to all sponsors, contributors of donations, committee members and volunteers. The names are too numerous to mention but I thank you all on behalf of the those children in our community who depend on the generosity of people like you. I wish the best of luck to the in coming chair Ingrid Moore and hope for her the same support and success that I experienced with the Foundation.               “The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children” Dietrich Bonhetler

We are all aware of the devistation in Haiti with record earthquakes and multiple after shocks that has left hundreds of thousands of Haitians without homes, water, food and most devistating the loss of lives.

We would like to put in a plug for anything we can do as a community to help with Relief contributions. 

The Intelligencer published an article letting people know that direct donations are being accepted  through the local Belleville office for the Red Cross.

We would like to thank all of our clients that brought in a non parishable food item for the foodbank.  We received this gift certificate indicating what was the total donation from the event.

 This years Movie Day was another great success.  We hope you had as good of a time as we did seeing all of you.  We appreciate our clients and feel very fortunate to be able to give back to you.

Hope to see you all next year!
