Great Wolf Lodge

We extend our heartfelt thanks to Great Wolf Lodge for their howling team spirit and dedication to community through hosting their annual Charity Car Wash.

Gillian's Place was excited and grateful to receive $130,000 from this event. These proceeds will have an immediate impact at Gillian's Place, as we continue to change and save lives amid an intimate partner violence epidemic in Niagara.

We are truly appreciative or this tremendous support and for everyone who contributed including the staff of Great Wolf Lodge, the Niagara Falls Fire Department, the Niagara Regional Police Service, generous volunteers, and of course all of the community members who showed up to support.

On a Bluebirds Wing

In December, a talented group of musicians, artists, and like minded people came together with one goal in mind- to raise funds and awareness for survivors of gender-based violence in our community. And they absolutely blew us away. On a Bluebird's Wing raised over $10,000 for Gillian's Place.

On a Bluebird's Wing- a one-night benefit concert at the Bank Art House in Welland brought together the incredible talents of Julianna Riolino, Dorothy Paas, Spencer Burton, and Nicolette & the Nobodies. It was an amazing show that brought the house down, while raising vital funds to support the work of Gillian's Place.
