What’s New?
We would like to keep our community partners and supporters up-to-date about what new is happening at the Women & Children’s Shelter of Barrie. So, we created a “What’s New” page so that visitors to our site can have a quick look at ongoing events, projects, and news stories about our agency. Enjoy!
KEG ”THANKS A MILLION” GRANT
We are growing! We have won a $25,000 grant from The Keg to provide affordable housing for the Barrie community. The $25,000 will cover security, lighting for our ‘New Beginnings’ project – the start of a wonderful initiative and much needed service in our community!
In order to obtain this much appreciated grant, members of our community had to vote daily for 1 month. We received the highest # of votes – We did this together! An insight into our strength as a community! Absolutely AWESOME!
We will provide updates both here on our website and on our Facebook page ‘Women & Children’s Shelter of Barrie http://www.facebook.com/pages/Women-Childrens-Shelter-of-Barrie/114293238626973 about our new and exciting second stage project.
Thank you for your support! It is inspirational to see what we can do as a community to provide this much needed service! Everybody played a part & every vote truly did help!
