SUMMARY:Fresh Start's Casino Royale
DESCRIPTION:Imagine a night where every hand dealt helps provide a safe place to sleep for someone in need. That’s the magic of Casino Royale\, a fundraiser for Fresh Start Services Inc.\, a nonprofit committed to ending homelessness in our community. \nFresh Start Services is a community agency that was incorporated in 2010\, to address the need for a new women’s shelter in Saint John. Since our incorporation\, our focus has evolved and is now centered on the prevention and elimination of homelessness\, in our city\, for all individuals and families.\nFresh Start is the leading organization in New Brunswick for homeless prevention and support. They successfully operated the 2024-2025 Out of the Cold Shelter\, housed hundreds of chronically and newly unhoused individuals\, and prevented over 300 individuals from entering homelessness. In December 2024\, Fresh Start opened ACRES\, a supported housing site in Saint John with 20 residents. We don’t believe that anyone is “unhouseable”. \nOn Saturday\, November 22nd\, 2025\, we’re gathering our community for a night of impact\, and we would love for you to be a part of it. \nCasino Royale will transform Union Club into an upscale casino experience — all in support of a great cause. Guests will enjoy an evening filled with exciting casino-style games like blackjack\, roulette\, and poker. Instead of gambling for cash\, guests will be playing for fun\, with all proceeds supporting Fresh Start Services’ mission to end homelessness.  The evening will also feature live music\, delicious local food and drinks\, a photo booth\, and a sought-after silent auction.
