Welcome to PAL Winnipeg!Winnipeggers know and love their reputation as a centre for artistic expression and excellence. There is a large creative community that feeds this dynamism we all thrive within - actors, technicians, dancers, writers, musicians, and filmmakers (to name a few) who enrich our lives every day and keep us on the world stage. Yet, the vast majority of those artists won’t have the means by which to afford housing as they age. PAL Winnipeg is a not for profit, registered charitable organization dedicated to providing affordable housing and support services for older members of our community particularly those individuals in the performing and allied professions.

| Some of the most vulnerable people in our
community are those involved with the performing arts. PAL considers these
cultural pioneers a priority for PAL residency since the erratic employment
and overall low income endemic within the performing arts industry has
prevented many from establishing sufficient pensions or retirement funds on
which to draw in later years.
To address this situation, PAL Winnipeg is working to build a Performing Arts Lodge in our community to provide senior members of the performing arts community with a safe and secure home in an affordable and supportive environment. As part of the diligence required to develop a proposal to potential financiers, PAL Winnipeg is carrying out a survey to determine local need and demand for an affordable not-for-profit housing facility for our seniors. Please complete this on-line form and return email it to our project planners (Acorn Development Consultants) at: applications@lifelease.ca. This email address is used only for your convenience to forward your completed application and is not used to communicate anything else - if you wish to converse with us - call us. Thanks.
