About This Event

Held on September 13, 1992, the Anniversary Fundraiser marked a joyful milestone for Mothers for Peace and the Croatian-Canadian community. The afternoon program featured variety entertainment, a European designer fashion show, and a Croatian cultural & heritage exhibition, complete with homemade pastries, tea service, door prizes, and a raffle.

All proceeds supported the Croatian Children Relief Fund, with every detail of the event — from music to fashion — reflecting the compassion and pride that united the diaspora in helping orphans of war.
