Preacebuilders Canada has been supporting positive changes in the justice and educational system for over 20 years by removing barriers that hold back Black, Indigenous and radicalized youths and reducing the number of reoffenders.
The annual fundraising event, Spring for Peace returned May 7th, this time at a larger space being the Atrium at Richarda’s.
Mayor Olivia Chow opened the evening by explaining the importance of Peacebuilders Canada in their mission of restoring the lives of young people drawn into crime at an early age with programs and justice system professionals that help build futures of young offenders by clearing records after a conviction when they choose education and practical job skills.
This is massive challenge for a staff of just 11 and we met them all at this gala known for wine tastings, amazing food stations and live entertainment while supporting a worthy cause.
