How You Can Help
Women & Children’s Emergency shelter in Winnipeg
As a new organization, donations and fund-raising are vital and help us to provide improved care and services for the women and children who come through our doors
Hosting a fundraising event is a wonderful way to let women and children, who come to us from situations of domestic violence, know that they are cared for and supported by their community. It’s also a great way to raise awareness about family violence and available services.
Any type of event (small or large) helps! Some ideas are:
- Collections at work or school (monetary or in-kind donations) i.e. bake sales, wear jeans day etc.
- Organized drive for in-kind donations
- Events which require an entry fee i.e. golf tournament, galas, breakfasts, 5k/10k Run
- Gifts on behalf of another person i.e. donation in lieu of a birthday gift
