Annual Dinner Dance and Sillent Auction is back
Our annual Dinner Dance and Silent Auction is back in 2024! Date: Friday April 19th, 2024. Time 6:30pm
Location: Parkview Manor, 55 Barber Greene Rd #1, North York, ON
This is the clubs primary fund-raiser, which is run entirely by volunteers. So 100% of the money raised goes to support local causes.
Civitan's purpose is to serve the community. This is done by fulfilling the human needs that are not met by other organizations or by individual efforts. Individuals whose needs are best met through organized group action are prime candidates for Civitan service projects. In all they do, Civitan seek experiences that provide life direction, character building, leadership development, and satisfaction of helping others. As a result of this work, a Civitan typically experience a heightened sense of self-esteem and accomplishment.
Celebrating over 60 years, the Don Mills Civitan Club has been instrumental in providing the youth within our community a venue to participate in Club sponsored activities while at the same time instilling values such as teamwork, responsibility, fair play and leadership.
Civitan places major emphasis on projects which assist people with mental and developmental disabilities. Some of our notable contributions in the Don Mills community include:
- Instrumental in raising the funding for Don Mills Civitan Arena in the late 1950's.
- Major contributor to the founding of "Eva's Place". This is a shelter for challenged and homeless youths located near Leslie Street in Don Mills.
- Provide scholarships each year through Don Mills Collegiate Institute to graduates with developmental or physical challenges in order to help fund their post-secondary education or workforce integration.
- Established the "Donaldson's Diamonds Program" our Don Mills teams for participants with developmental challenges.
- Continuous support for local families in need and our local food bank.
