In 2022, we raised over $85,000 dollars to send kids to camp across Ontario.

Giving kids the opportunity to play and the power to choose, Variety has partnered with BGC (Boys & Girls Club), the Centre Camp (JCC), and Camp Awakening to create more opportunities to send kids with a disability to camp.

Variety - the Children’s Charity (Ontario) plays a key role in creating caring, inclusive, and just communities. Year after year we count on fundraising events to raise money for our programming and services.

Proceeds help us provide accessible and inclusive programming, provide one-to-one support for campers, and send kids to camp - closer to home.

Our goal with this fundraising event is to raise in excess of $100,000 all with the aim to help us alleviate the costs on a child’s family, help us maintain an accessible and inclusive facility, and give kids a summer they’ll never forget!

The pop-up Casino Night is hosted at The Miller Tavern, a former gambling den during prohibition, and a Hogg’s Hollow institution that dates back to the 1860s, reveres tradition, and reads classic tavern.

The speak-easy-themed evening will host live entertainment, prizes, giveaways, hors d’oeuvres and light fare, an open bar and one great party.

Tickets are $200.00.

We will host an online and in person auction, raffles, and prize giveaways. 

The only thing you won’t be gambling on is fun!
