For twelve years, the Montreal AHEPA Family (American Hellenic Educational Progressive Association) has held its St. Valentine’s “For the Love of Children” Ball, to benefit children’s causes in the Greater Montreal area. To date, we have successfully raised over $400,000.
This year’s beneficiary will be the Giant Steps Foundation (www.giantstepsmontreal.com) which supports the Giant Steps School and Resource Center for autistic children. This unique institution provides exceptional support to children and their parents.
Giant Steps School and Resource Center is the only institution in Quebec focused exclusively on autism spectrum disorders. Respected throughout the educational and medical community, its therapeutic and educational programs strive to improve the abilities and skills of children with autism and related disorders while integrating them into regular schools and the community at large. Ultimately, the Giant Steps team aims to enable the greatest number of autistic children to reach their full potential and achieve independence in our society.
The Saint Valentine’s Ball is the crowning event of our annual fundraising campaign for children’s causes. This year’s event will be held on Saturday, February 11th, 2012, at the Palace Reception Hall, 1717 Le Corbusier Boulevard (north of St. Martin), Laval, Quebec H7S 2K7.
In previous years, this event has supported the Montreal Shriners Hospital for Children; the Montreal Children’s Hospital; St. Justine’s Hospital; and the Children’s Wish Foundation.
