This International Day of the Girl (October 11th) the Women's Centre is aiming to raise $1000 to go towards funding the GEM program. GEM is an inclusive space for girls and gender-diverse youth in Grades 4 to 7 to connect, build confidence, learn new skills, and just be themselves. Your donation would help support program supplies, snacks, activities, facilitators and accessible programming.

To donate, please go to https://www.canadahelps.org/en/charities/golden-womens-resource-centre/campaign/international-day-of-the-girl-support-gem. Every gift makes a difference.
