The Women Empowerment Brunch

On Sunday, August 14, 2016, we had our annual summer brunch.  This event started with my girlfriend wanting to end the summer on a great note a few years back, August 2011, to be exact.  She invited me and six other of her closest friends along with a couple of her neighbors to spend the day in her beautiful home and garden. We had such an amazing day we decided to make it an annual thing—Dawn's Big Hat, Long Dress Garden Brunch. The pictures got raving reviews on facebook.  As time went by, more and more people started requesting invites or asked why they weren't invited.  My girlfriend being a people lover and having a huge heart decided to open her doors to more people the following year. Six years later, it has come to be known as the Women Empowerment Brunch, with over 30 fabulous ladies in their long dresses, big hats and lots of bling! This year, we collected non-perishable items to be delivered to a woman's shelter in Brampton, home of the event. I was asked to give a talk on women empowerment. You can read it here. But first here are a few pictures of the event.
