Splash of Red

For 18 consecutive years, The Splash of Red Gala Committee continues to lead the charge in raising awareness and funds for Trellis Society, aimed at providing care for youth experiencing homelessness. The Gala includes elements of a cocktail reception, dinner, dance, silent auction and live auction. Event sponsorship, ticket sales, donor matching and proceeds from the auction add up to a growing amount of $900,000 annually.

Together we have raised over $6M for vulnerable youth and families since 2005.

Trellis is a Calgary-based social services agency meeting people caught at the intersections of society's most complex challenges; offering a comprehensive continuum of programs for over 6,000 people each year. Programs are designed to support children, youth, families and communities. We operate programs in every quadrant of Calgary, plus neighboring Strathmore.

Trellis programs and services open a path for people from every culture, gender and life experience to reach for their potential.
