8th Annual Pink Tie Gala
The 8th Annual Pink Tie Gala is our signature fundraising event, and this year’s celebration is particularly meaningful as we mark the 100th anniversary of women gaining the right to vote in Newfoundland. This milestone serves as a reminder of the strong, determined women who came before us and the importance of continuing the fight for gender equality.
