21st Annual Global News Give Me Shelter Campaign
Thank you for making a donation today to support Edmonton and area women’s shelters.
It’s a shocking statistic. Each year, thousands of women and children flee domestic violence to find shelter at one of Alberta’s women’s shelters. Many women leave quickly with their children taking nothing more than the clothes on their backs in a desperate attempt to get away. Having somewhere safe is vital to these families.
No one should be forgotten during the holidays.
Gift cards and cash donations can be dropped off at Global Edmonton – 5325 Allard Way – throughout the campaign to provide much-needed items and Christmas gifts for women and children who are the survivors of violence in our community.
