MAY
in memory of Aimee Quitevis
The Canadian Women's Foundation
Who was Aimee Quitevis?
Aimee was a gifted athlete, community volunteer and volleyball coach. Aimee Quitevis was murdered by her husband, who then took his own life. To keep her memory alive and raise funds to prevent domestic violence, her sister Athena – along with Aimee’s many friends and teammates – established the Aimee Quitevis Memorial Fund.
Aimee loved volleyball, so each year, there is a fundraising tournament in her honour drawing hundreds of participants. All funds raised through the tournament support the Canadian Women’s Foundation’s efforts to end violence. The tournament takes place in April or May of each year.
​
Create the Most Joy is giving all of May's profits from the sales of The Original Joy Kit to The Aimee Quitevis Memorial Fund.
What is the Canadian Women's Foundation?
The Canadian Women's Foundation aims to eliminate violence against women, promote gender equality and support women in Canada in a variety of ways. ​
​
Here, you can find more information about the violence prevention grants that the Canadian Women's Foundation offers. Family and friends can create memorial funds and fundraise in honour of loved ones and specific causes which the Canadian Women's Foundation oversees.
For the month of May, Create the Most Joy will donate profits from the sales of The Original Joy Kit to The Aimee Quitevis Memorial Fund in support of the Canadian Women's Foundation's work.
