Voted one of Maclean’s Top 100 Charities of 2020, YW Calgary focuses on enhancing women’s well-being while advocating for equity. Each year YW supports nearly 6,000 women and their families move from crisis to stability by providing shelter, supportive housing, counselling, child development, childcare, education and employment programs in partnership with our donors, government and other social agencies.

Your support of this important event will help thousands of vulnerable women and families served by YW Calgary’s programs and services each year,  including our domestic violence shelter, emergency shelter and women’s economic prosperity programs.
