Dear Humber College Community;
Year after year, the Faculty of Health Sciences & Wellness supports Ernestine’s Women’s Shelter as a community partner in many different ways, including our annual collection of non-perishable food, health & hygiene, and household items during December. We would like to continue the tradition this year despite being unable to collect physical donations, and to also extend the invitation to the entire Humber community to help through monetary donations.
For those that may not be familiar with Ernestine's Shelter, please see below an overview:
Ernestine's Women's Shelter, an organization run by women, provides support and shelter for women and children escaping violence. Ernestine’s assists women and children in rebuilding their lives by providing crisis intervention and a range of holistic support services, while acknowledging the multitude of issues facing survivors of abuse. Ernestine's adapts its services to honour diversity and the unique needs of the individual. Ernestine’s promotes awareness, education and advocates for early intervention and prevention. http://www.ernestines.ca/.
Thank you in advance for your support and generosity!
Warmest Regards,
The Faculty of Health Sciences & Wellness.
