On October 24th, Emmanuel International Canada celebrated its 11th Annual Gala Dinner & Auction, welcoming 184 guests for an evening of fellowship, great food, inspiring stories and exciting auction bidding. We are incredibly grateful to everyone who helped make the evening such a success, whether by attending, donating, sponsoring, volunteering, bidding or praying for the event.
Our $150,000 Fundraising Goal Has Been Reached!
We are thrilled to announce that, through the generosity of our supporters, we have reached our $150,000 fundraising goal through donations and pledges in support of the Titukule Azimai (Empower Women) Project in Malawi!
This project supports women and girls, particularly survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, by improving access to support services, strengthening livelihoods and helping create safer communities. Your generosity is helping build brighter futures and lasting change.
Highlights from the Evening
Joella and Kim shared an inspiring update on the Empower Women Project, highlighting the progress being made and the lives being impacted through this important work. Funded through Global Affairs Canada (GAC), the four-year project is now halfway through its implementation, with important work continuing to strengthen support services, improve livelihoods and create safer communities for women and girls, particularly survivors of sexual and gender-based violence.
We also enjoyed a special video update from Mike and Marianne Botting on the SEND Centre in Uganda, last year's Gala fundraising focus. It was wonderful to see the progress being made and how the generosity of our supporters continues to make a difference in equipping the next generation of leaders.

And, of course, there were some fun auction moments! One unexpected highlight was a Cadbury chocolate bar that travelled all the way from England and sold for an incredible $100 CDN in the live auction!
Thank You for Making a Difference
Reaching this milestone is a reflection of the generosity and commitment of our supporters, churches, sponsors, volunteers and prayer partners. We are thankful for the way God continues to work through this community to bring hope and lasting change.
Thank you for partnering with Emmanuel International in serving communities around the world!
