December 6 is the day of the Montr\u00e9al Massacre when Marc Lepine went to l\u2019\u00c9cole Polytechnique de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Montr\u00e9al and shot nine women, killing six of them and wounding three others, while screaming that the women were feminists and that he hated feminists. Every year since then, the flags in Canada are flown at half-mast as a reminder of the tragedy and a promise to prevent a repeat of such an event.<\/p>\n<p>The special event evening will also mark the 40<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of Maison Interlude House (MIH)\u00a0 and its work in providing shelter for women and children trying to escape abusive domestic situations, and also in providing support services for women dealing with abuse.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday, in addition to welcoming women and their dependents to its shelter,\u201d stated Muriel Lalonde, MIH executive director, \u201cMIH offers outreach services throughout all five counties, accessing our services through our satellite offices. Each year, MIH supports over 500 women through its outreach services in Prescott-Russell and Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s fundraising project for MIH is an evening supper and concert December 6 at the Bonnie Glen Pavilion in Alexandria. A Christmas choral concert by the L\u2019Orignal Chorale de l\u2019amiti\u00e9 will be the highlight entertainment portion of the evening. The event will also include a silent auction and a series of raffles.<\/p>\n<p>MIH is also organizing a special draw as part of its fundraising this year. A $25 ticket offers a chance tow in a $3000 gift certicate for a vacation of the winner\u2019s choie. Second prize is a pair of economy-class airline tickets to anywhere in North America, and also including Hawaii, Mexico, and the West Indies.<\/p>\n<p>Tickets for the event are $150 and reserved tickets are available at www.miin nterludeh.ca. Those unable to attend the event but wishing to help support MIH may also make donation pledges at the website.<\/p>\n<p>All funds raised through the evening event, the special ticket draw, and all other donations made to MIH through its website, go towards providing non-subsidized but essential services to the women and children seeking help from the agency. That includes help with buying food, providing childcare, transportation for medical or other appointments, Christmas gifts for those in need, and emergency financial assistance for those in dire need.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Maison Interlude House confirmed a new fundraising campaign this year.
