The 2023 Mission Possible Gala took place on November 29 at the Fairmont Waterfront!
With the help of our Gala partners and supporters, we were able to soar past our goal of $275,000, raising a total of $307,792 for our Employment Readiness Program. It was also an incredible night to celebrate the journeys of six Momentum Award Winners and all of Mission Possible’s accomplishments in the last year.
We would like to give a thank you to our extraordinary hosts, Nat & Drew from Move 103.5, as well as our fabulous auctioneer, Fred Lee. In addition, we are so grateful for our Gold, Silver, Bronze, and Media Partners, without whom the work we do would not be possible.
The support shown at our gala will make a huge impact on those entering our doors for the first time in the coming year. It provides more opportunities for folks in the Downtown Eastside to secure the training, coaching, and support they need to return to the workforce, and empowers people to lean on their strengths and grow their confidence.
You can learn more about the gala here, and we would love to hear from you if you’re interested in becoming a 2024 Mission Possible Gala Partner. Contact our Development Team at development@mission-possible.ca!
