Laing House Masquerade Ball,
A Night in Rio
2011 is a year of milestones and we need to celebrate. Laing House is now in its tenth year as a peer support organization for youth with mental illness.
On Saturday, October 22, 2011 Laing House celebrates its fifth annual Masquerade Ball at the Cunard Centre in Halifax. Past years have taken us to places near and far, including New York and Paris. Considered one of the most enjoyable events in the city, the Ball boasts fantastic auction items, delicious dining, and fabulous entertainment and dancing.
This year promises to be another spectacular evening as we heat things up and head to spectacular Rio de Janeiro for an exhilarating adventure in one of the world’s most celebrated cities - a place famous for breathtaking beaches, dazzling entertainment and of course, Carnival. Expect feathers, balloons, fiery colours, and a lot of fun, all while supporting a great cause.
In just four years, the Laing House Masquerade Ball is responsible has raised over $645,000 in net profit for the essential programs and services offered at Laing House while creating awareness of youth mental illness.
