Mark your calendars! The 10th Annual Grape Expectations Gala will be held on Monday, October 29, 2012 at Carmen's.

Thank you to everyone who attended, donated your time and contributed to our 2011 Grape Expectations Gala. Together we raised over $90, 000 and all proceeds will support The Children's Aid Society of Hamilton's Children's Fund.

The Society's Children's Fund helps to enrich and enhance the lives of children in care by providing them with educational, therapeutic and recreational opportunities.

In 2003, The Children’s Aid Society of Hamilton hosted its first Grape Expectations Gala - an evening of fine wine and food sampling in support of the Society’s Children’s Fund. Since that time the annual event has continued to grow, to progress and, most importantly, to support Hamilton’s most vulnerable children and youth having raised just under $800,000 to date.
