Mark your calendars and save the date, as we are celebrating some of Ottawa’s most Amazing People Saturday, October 24, 2015 at the Delta Ottawa City Centre. The Amazing People Gala Committee has been hard at work organizing this year’s event. They will pull out all stops to make sure that it is the biggest, most exciting and inspirational Amazing People Gala to date!
Be prepared for an evening full of laughter, tears and inspirational stories surrounded by Amazing People and inspirational leaders from the Ottawa Area. Past Amazing People galas have included incredible flash mobs, incredible singing and crowded dance floors. The focus for this gala is about celebrating the human spirit and having fun.
By attending the CTV Amazing People Gala, you will make a difference in the world.
You will be helping Ottawa teenagers realize their dream of travelling to Nicaragua with SchoolBOX to help build a school for children desperate for an education. You will also help support education in Kenya through The Hera Mission of Canada. Capital-area teens will learn about their ability to make a difference. Over the past few years, two groups of Ottawa Youth travelled to Nicaragua and their lives were changed while building CTV Amazing People schools and interacting with communities. They learned to be leaders and experience first-hand their impact on the world.
Over the past two years, the Amazing People Gala has raised upwards of $150K for SchoolBOX and The Hera Mission of Canada. This has built 4 CTV Amazing People Gala schools with SchoolBOX and the Amazing People Resource Centre in Asembo Bay, Kenya with The Hera Mission of Canada. This year, the Amazing People Gala is happy have Ryan’s Well, Miracle League and Project North as guest charities.
