The Clarion Hotel, Winnipeg

Villa Rosa has been providing services in Winnipeg to young single pregnant women for 112 years. Villa Rosa and our Title Sponsor, the Paletta Family, would like you to join us for a very special evening at the Clarion Hotel. Last year, the Celebration of Motherhood Dinner was a huge success. Tickets sold out several weeks before the dinner, everyone had a great time and over $40,000 was raised. This year we are giving you the opportunity to purchase tickets early so you don’t miss out on what promises to be another great event.

Lindor Reynolds, Columnist for The Winnipeg Free Press, will host the evening. There will be fantastic prizes for you to win at the silent auction.

Corporate tables of 8 are $1200 per table.
Individual tickets are $150 per person.
A tax receipt for $95 will be issued for each ticket.

Please make your cheque payable to Villa Rosa Inc.

The proceeds from this event will go to both Villa Rosa and to our Endowment Fund in order to support the young women to graduate and to provide scholarships for post secondary education. Education is the key to the future, and Villa Rosa needs your assistance to support our young women to become self sufficient, participating members of the Winnipeg community.


Please call Mindy Barsky-Veitch, Director of Development, at 786-5741 extension 224 to purchase tickets for what promises to be a wonderful evening
