About
About the Northshore Waterfront Gala
The North Shore Waterfront Gala is an initiative by five major waterfront terminals and the businesses that support them.
The North Shore Waterfront Gala was created to support those in need and build connections amongst people and organizations on the North Shore community. This year we have selected two charities to partner with, Family Services of the North Shore and Harvest Project.
Proceeds
All proceeds of the North Shore Waterfront Gala go towards organizations located on and providing services to families and children on the North Shore. We believe that an investment in the well-being of children – our future citizens, employees and leaders – is an investment in the future of our community and our businesses.
Founding Sponsors
The North Shore Waterfront Gala is organized by and receives major funding from five waterfront terminals:
2026 Beneficiaries
Following a call for proposals from local organizations, the North Shore Waterfront Gala Organizing Committee selected the following charitable partners for the 2026-2027 events. Each organization will receive an annual grant of $50,000 thanks to ticket sales, sponsorships, donations and auction proceeds.
Family Services of the North Shore provides children and families in our community with counselling, education and support through the Thrive Family, Christmas Bureau and Wonder Wheels programs.
Harvest Project assists North Shore residents impacted by illness, job loss and family trauma with essential food, housing and clothing needs through their Client Care and North Shore Rent Bank programs.
North Shore Waterfront Endowment Fund
In 2019, the Gala’s Founding Sponsors created the North Shore Waterfront Endowment Fund. All moneys raised in addition to the $100,000 allocated to the charitable partners each year will be invested in future grants for groups supporting children and youth on the North Shore, ensuring benefits for our community well into the future.
