The CFLC provides comfort and support to the impoverished by distributing, at no cost, material goods. We help up to 100 families every day. In 2019 we received nearly 18,500 donations and distributed over 54,000 household articles and bags of clothing.
We are in urgent need of a new location, and with your help, we can serve thousands more every year.
Please consider donating today to help us reach our goal of $1.5 million. Together, we may continue to change lives by lending a helping hand to those in need.

The Brothers Quay: Selected Shorts (WAG Rooftop Retreat)
Since the late 1970s identical twins Stephen and Timothy Quay have created an eerie series of short films using puppetry and stop motion animation that have spawned an enormous cult following. Their brilliant use of camera movement, typography, lighting and set design create a disturbing, unforgettable landscape. This mesmerizing program includes their masterful film Street of Crocodiles, which Terry Gilliam selected as one of the ten best animated films of all time.
Enhance your rooftop experience with a dinner from SMITH, the award-winning restaurant from Inn at the Forks. Cash bar featuring select beer, wine and specialty cocktails available.

The Pride & Prejudice Ball ~ Winnipeg (2020) · Hosted by Lady Jane Productions
Live in History, and imagine yourself transported to Regency England, circa 1815. It's the world of Jane Austen, where Mr. Darcy and Miss Elizabeth Bennett are dancing by candlelight at the Netherfield Ball, where military heroes such as the Duke of Wellington have returned triumphant from the Napoleonic War, where there is dancing to live music, and where a frothy cup of syllabub is yours to sip, surrounded by the sight of elegant, bejewelled ladies and dashing gentlemen ... all without the use of a time machine.
New for 2020: a light, pre-Ball Dinner (5:00-6:15 pm)
Enjoy a Regency era-inspired, light dinner of Regency White Soup, the Fort Garry's famous bread, Regency Greens (salad), and beautiful Beef Stew.
A Vegetarian meal of Mulligatawny Soup with a Vegetable tart is an option.
No partner is necessary and no dance experience required. A dance partner is easily acquired, as it was commonplace in this period for people to dance with different partners.
