LCNB’s Gala Literacy Dinner and Auction 2025

The Literacy Coalition of New Brunswick will be holding its 2025 Gala Literacy Dinner and Auction on October 16th, 2025 at the Delta Fredericton!

We will be celebrating our 2025 Literacy Champion and other special individuals who have made outstanding contributions to literacy in New Brunswick. The evening will also feature personal stories from inspiring adult learners.

This major fundraiser makes a vital difference for children and adults who struggle with reading, writing, numeracy, and essential skills. The funds raised will support valuable early childhood and adult learning programs, libraries, tutoring, and other community literacy initiatives across the province.

We are excited to announce our 2025 Literacy Champion, Gardiner MacDougall of the Moncton Wildcats!

Gardiner MacDougall is one of the most accomplished hockey coaches in Canadian history. His many achievements include leading the Saint John Sea Dogs to a Memorial Cup Championship, 24 seasons as head coach of the UNB Reds with over 700 wins, and setting franchise records with the Moncton Wildcats. Off the ice, he fosters academic excellence, with more than 100 of his players achieving Academic All-Canadian honours.
