SOCIAL SCENE
1. SOCIAL SCENE | COMMUNITY BUILDERS: THE LAW ENFORCEMENT TORCH RUN
“Let me win. But if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt.” Athlete
Kimana Mar recited the Special Olympics oath, a quote from the late Eunice
Kennedy Shriver, the founder of the Special Olympics. Kennedy Shriver said
the powerful words when the first Special Olympics were held in 1968 in
Chicago. Decades later, the Special Olympics has become a global movement
that has changed lives and attitudes for countless athletes with
intellectual disabilities. The Ontario Law Enforcement Torch Run is the
largest public awareness vehicle and grassroots fundraiser for the Special
Olympics. Since the event’s inception, $47 million has been raised to help
cover the expenses of programming, uniforms, field rentals and costs
associated with running the Special Olympics. Over the years the Torch Run
has evolved and now encompasses a variety of innovative fundraising
platforms including Polar Plunges, Tip-A-Cops, NHL Alumni Games, Torch
Rides, Endurance Series and more. On Thursday, Oct. 12, a sea of red Torch
Run shirts could be spotted as the group did a five kilometre run through
Ottawa’s downtown for the Law Enforcement Torch Run Opening Ceremony. The
event raised funds and awareness for the Special Olympics locally, with
members from the Ottawa Police Service, the RCMP, OPP, Parliamentary
Protective Service and OC Transpo special constables coming together to
participate with the athletes and volunteers. “I would not have had the
opportunity to be a world champion without the help of volunteers, sponsors
and donors like you,” Kimana Mar said. “Special Olympics are only possible
because of caring people like you. The truth is, everyone is a champion when
they are involved with Special Olympics.” For more information or to make a
donation, head to www.torchrunontario.com. If you know of someone doing
something exceptional to help, we would love to share their story. Please
send details to socialscene@postmedia.com and we will be in touch.

4. SOCIAL SCENE | COMMUNITY BUILDERS: PURPLE TIE GALA
While the Purple Tie Gala in support of Cornerstone Housing for Women is
already sold out, it’s not too late to help the organization. The colourful
evening of fun will be held Saturday, Oct. 14, at the National Arts Centre
to raise funds and awareness for women and gender-diverse adults in Ottawa.
The first women-only shelter in Ottawa, Cornerstone Housing for Women began
in 1983 with three cots in the basement of All Saints Church. The
organization has grown dramatically, now providing shelter to 125 women and
supportive housing to 110 women across a handful of housing communities in
the city. Funds raised from this year’s gala will help with the new Eccles
Street supportive housing building that will provide a safe home for 46
women. Funds will also cover some of the costs associated with running the
shelters, homes and programming, which is more than $1 million per year. “It
has been an especially difficult time with the lack of affordable housing,
funding decreases and the fentanyl crisis,” said Kate Jackson, Cornerstone’s
acting executive director. “At Cornerstone we really believe that everyone
deserves a home and a safe space to heal with dignity. It’s a challenging
time but our community has stepped up and supported us.” Though you may have
missed your opportunity for the chance to dance the night away in your
most-loved purple outfit, you can still donate to Cornerstone and take part
in the online auction connected to the event. For more information, head to
www.cornerstonewomen.ca. If you know of someone doing something exceptional
to help, we would love to share their story. Please send details to
socialscene@postmedia.com and we will be in touch.
