Gender-based violence affects women’s safety and their ability to build secure futures. For many women, leaving violence requires more than courage, it requires access to safe housing, counselling, financial support, and a community that supports them.

Through the campaign, WCYR helps provide critical programs and resources for women experiencing violence, supporting their safety, healing, and long-term stability.

Together, we can help create safer futures for women in our community. πŸ’šπŸ’™

Women, especially those facing multiple barriers like racialization, disability, or single motherhood, are disproportionately impacted by poverty. This economic instability affects their safety, health, and access to basic needs.

Through the campaign, the Women’s Centre of York Region invests in women and their futures. Your donation allows us to respond to women’s immediate needs and sustain essential programs that help break cycles of poverty and empower women.

Together, we can invest in safer, more stable futures for women in our community πŸ’šπŸ’™
