Our Goal:

"This gala is deeply personal. First, it’s an opportunity to honour the life and legacy of Cynthia Janisse—my partner, my love—who tragically passed away last year. Cynthia was a fierce advocate for women in recovery, and her spirit continues to guide everything we do at Northstar.

Second, we’re coming together to raise $50,000 for a critical fire suppression system at the Northstar Castle. Without it, we’re only permitted to support 10 women at a time. With it, we can safely welcome 20 women—doubling our impact and extending a lifeline to those still waiting." -Cole Izsak Founder of Back on Track Recovery

Every day, we hear from women on the streets looking for safety, support, and a chance to rebuild. We can’t turn them away any longer. Your presence and support at this event will help us honour Cynthia’s legacy by expanding access to recovery for women who need it most."

Don't miss out on this opportunity to make a difference and have a fantastic time doing it. Let's get back on track and support recoery together!
