• Impact: MSP’s door swung open 28,406 times last year for a woman to enter. Programs help women achieve safety, stability, skills, confidence, and recovery.
• 2026 Goal: Funds raised will go toward the highest priority needs at My Sisters’ Place.
• Testimonial — J.A.: “My Sisters’ Place is a safe place for women where staff really get to know you and understand your individual needs. There is a lot of support as I work on my mental health and I’ve appreciated being introduced to other cultures and practices – like having an opportunity to smudge with Reta.”
• Fundraiser Goal: CA$50,000. Current raised: CA$16,327.59 (33% of goal).
• Top Fundraiser: Mary Lou Greenwood — CA$3,674.74 (184% of CA$2,000 goal). Top Team: Walking for our Sister's — CA$5,923.61 raised. Top Donor: Col. Stuart W. Ross — CA$269.32.
