As we mark the one-year anniversary of the start of our current global pandemic, it is important to reflect on how much and how deeply our community has been affected. Here at Dixon Hall, we are taking a moment to look back at the experiences and challenges that certainly tested us, but that also made us stronger as an organization, and as a community.
The Scheinberg Relief Fund created an opportunity for us to act quickly and effectively for those in our community who needed a helping hand. Without their help, we might not have been able to offer some of these essential community programs. We’re thrilled to share with you the impact made by the Scheinberg Relief Fund’s contribution in our community.
The Children & Youth department at Dixon Hall has been offering summer camp and youth programs to the Regent Park neighbourhood and surrounding areas for 40 years. Our young community members join our programs at various points during their youth or adolescence, and often choose to stay involved in the community right into adulthood.
It is with great joy that we can at last confirm that the construction of our new building is officially complete! And we are thrilled to let you know that the building has been named in honour of the lead donor from our capital campaign.
For more than 40 years Dixon Hall Summer Camp has provided young campers a summer of opportunity, the chance to try new things, and to build relationships and memories that will last a lifetime. Dixon Hall remains committed to helping our young friends look ahead to a safe and enjoyable summer.
