Mother Nature cooperated with a warm sunny day for the outdoor Women’s House appreciation event at Dunsmore park where some 25 people were in attendance to celebrate donors, sponsors and volunteers.
Guest speaker was Bill Walker, President & CEO of the Organization of Canadian Nuclear Industries (OCNI), and the Women’s house shared a powerpoint presentation, celebrating the shelter’s Backyard Makeover thanks to the help of several donors and volunteers, as well as a thank you to the sponsors that help with annual programming and services support.
Among those recognized were also the donors that participated/supported the Backyard Makeover and/ or were Capital/Project sponsors for other projects
“Sponsor support is critical to meeting the demand, while maintaining and enhancing the level of service, that WHSBG is able to provide in our community,” said Michelle Lamont, Community & Fund Development Coordinator the Women’ House. “We know that our supporters, volunteers, business leaders and sponsors are investing in building a stronger community.”
