Our Luso participants had a blast celebrating the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday by creating wonderful Fall-inspired art and taking part in themed games such as Pictionary and “stuffing” a paper turkey.
On behalf of the participants and families we serve, thank you to everyone who has supported our organization throughout the year and made a positive difference for individuals living with disabilities, especially during these unprecedented times.
We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!
In the spirit of Thanksgiving, we would like to give thanks to Feed Mississauga and Rotary Club of Mississauga-Meadowvale for providing 81 hot meals to brighten the day for Luso families. Recipients enjoyed delicious chicken dinners, complete with cranberries and mashed potatoes. Fresh fruit was also provided by Silva & Son Produce along with other treats from Luso staff. Thank you to our caring and generous community partners!
Thank you to Spezza Sanitation Service for protecting our participants with an electrostatic disinfection spray at all our Luso Support Centres!

This year’s Volta allowed participants to show their support for Luso in any activity of their choice and we love seeing how they styled Volta to their own taste during the campaign.
We thank Karina, a Volta participant, for sharing this wonderful photo in her 2020 Luso Virtual Volta t-shirt and for supporting the event by horseback riding!

Today the parking lot at the Shoppes on Rogers Road in Toronto roared with the sound of more than 50 motorcycles who raised funds for the 2020 Luso Virtual Volta, sponsored by BPA Financial Group and LIUNA Local 183, in tribute to David Harvey.
The charity ride, organized by Bravos Açores, sent our Volta Motorcyclists on a 200 KM ride from Martins Churrasqueira & Grill House along the scenic countryside to Madeira Park in Georgina where a delicious Portuguese barbecue lunch awaited. Participating riding clubs included the Bravos Açores, Luso MR, Quinas, and Highwaymen Riding Clubs. The array of beautiful bikes and rider apparel delighted many bystanders who happened to pass by.
Luso Canadian Charitable Society thanks the organizers and participants of today’s event who raised more than $5,000 in support of adults living with disabilities! We hope to see them again for next year’s Volta!
