Guests will enjoy a beautifully catered buffet dinner, live music, networking opportunities, special guests, a silent auction, and a 50/50 raffle — all in support of building a more mindful and compassionate community.The gala’s featured presentation highlights the extraordinary journey of Matt Devine alongside Kushok Lobsang Dhamchoe. Drawing from more than 20 years of personal transformation and over 50,000 kilometres of endurance challenges across Canada, Matt shares his path from corporate burnout, poor health, and disconnection to a life grounded in purpose, resilience, and service. His remarkable achievements — including completing seven marathons in seven days, cycling 12,500 km across Canada, and leading the Heroes Unleashed Cross-Canada Challenge — have helped raise more than $250,000 for children’s charities while inspiring countless others to redefine what is possible.Together, Matt and Kushok explore how lasting transformation begins within. Blending evidence-based neuroscience with the wisdom of mindfulness and Tibetan Buddhist meditation, they will demonstrate how these complementary approaches can help cultivate greater mental fitness, emotional resilience, clarity, and happiness. Through their shared experiences, guests will discover practical tools for creating meaningful change and living with greater purpose and well-being.Whether you are seeking inspiration, personal growth, community connection, or simply an uplifting evening, A Journey of Change promises to be a truly meaningful and memorable experience.Sponsorship opportunities are available.
