On June 18, Ann Swain, Steve Rankin, Catherine Shortt and Kim Ottenbrite from Maritimes & Northeast Pipeline came by to paint the kitchen at the shelter, Adsum House. They did a fabulous job. Many thanks folks!
This almost completes work on the kitchen, which has been dramatically remodelled over the last six months.
Adsum presents Frank Warren on January 20, 2010 at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium, Dalhousie Arts Centre. Tickets go on sale July 2 at the Rebecca Cohn Box Office. Tickets are $30, $20 for students, to benefit Adsum for Women & Children. All seats are general admission.

The Gelatinous Dudes raised $700 by playing their third annual marathon for charity in mid June. They gamed in a straight 24-hour stretch to support Adsum.
The Gelatinous Dudes are a group of Halifax tabletop gaming enthusiasts who also share a passion to be a positive force in their community. They are great friends of Adsum.
Please support those who support us...
