Participate

Join Nova Vita throughout the year at one of our annual events to raise awareness about domestic violence and raise much needed financial support for our emergency shelter, programs and services.

International Women’s Day

A very special thank you to our attendees, sponsors, prize donors, volunteers, and special guests. Because of you, over $40,000 was raised at #NovaVitaIWD to support women and their families impacted by domestic violence in our communities. You made a difference.

Heels to Heal Walk

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 10th Annual Nova Vita Heels to Heal Walk, originally scheduled for June 14, 2020, has been postponed. Watch this space for updates and event announcements.

We would like to thank our Annual Partners who have been so supportive through this process, and continue to show their support for Nova Vita. Thank you Brantford Nissan, Millards Chartered Professional Accountants, Waterous Holden Amey Hitchon Lawyers LLP, and Dairee Delite.

Golf Tournament

We are excited to be hosting our 23rd Annual Golf FORE Nova Vita event within a safe and socially distant framework this summer. As Nova Vita strives to become pandemic resilient as a not-for-profit organization, while responding to the heightened demands for our shelter and services, fundraising and fostering a healthy community are at par. You can help make a difference for women and their families escaping violence and homelessness when you schedule your support and tee time with Nova Vita at the exclusive Brantford Golf & Country Club.

This year’s event will include:

  • 4-Player Scramble: Men, Women & Mixed team flights.
  • Tee-Time Start: Teams to arrive for welcome and registration at scheduled time. Tee times will be 10 minutes apart.
  • Screening: Golfers will be screened upon arrival to ensure they are symptom-free.
  • Lunch & Beverages: BBQ lunch included and served at the Halfway House, and on-course beverages available for purchase at The Crossroads (debit/credit only).
  • Games & Contests: All games and contests are included in registration fee to limit points of contact on the day of the event. This includes the all-new FUNdraising purse!
  • Virtual Awards Ceremony: Team Trophies and all prize winners (Closest to the Pin and Closest to the Target) announced virtually following event.
  • Limiting Points of Contact: To ensure participant safety, the silent auction, reception, dinner and awards banquet have been removed from the schedule.
