Did you know that 55% of WINGS budget depends on the generosity of our wonderful community supporters, key stakeholders, corporate sponsors, fundraising events, and other grants? In order to operate our fully established facilities and programs, we must continue to ask our community for help. We are proud of what we accomplish at WINGS each day, and proud of the families who are breaking the cycle of family violence for themselves and future generations.
It is only with the help of generous supporters like YOU, and the many Champions in our community who continue to advocate for WINGS, that we can continue to offer a safe home with wrap around care and support to women and children escaping abuse.
Thank you to the Government of Alberta, Community Services & Supports Division, for continued funding.
