We are deeply grateful to the members of the Zonta Club Hamilton 1 for their generous support of IWC.

It was a pleasure to welcome Dianne Moore, Incoming President, and Sandra Cronk, Vice President, to our location as they presented a cheque on behalf of the Club.
This meaningful contribution will help us continue delivering programs and support services that promote the well-being and economic resilience of women, members of vulnerable communities.

Partnerships like this make a real difference in the lives of those we serve, and we sincerely thank Zonta Club of Hamilton 1 for their commitment to building stronger, more inclusive Hamilton community.

🌟 Celebrating Community Spirit! 🌟

The Welcoming Essentials initiative, launched in March by two McMaster students, successfully completed its first round of donations! On April 7th, Zohal Kamal and Alexandra Giudice visited IWC’s offices at 8 Main St. East to deliver the generous items collected.

We at IWC extend our heartfelt thanks to Zohal and Alexandra for their vision and dedication, and to the entire McMaster community who contributed. Thanks to your generosity, many newcomer families will now have access to essential personal care items.

💡 Inspired to help? Stay tuned for future donation days and find out how you can make a difference in the lives of newcomer families.
