Ways to Help
You can be part of someone’s safe place
Your support helps women and children access safety, healing, and a path forward.
Support doesn’t just keep the lights on. It changes what’s possible.
Your support is a lifeline
When you support My Friend’s House, you help provide:
Safe shelter in moments of crisis
Compassionate, trauma-informed care
Support for children and families
Pathways toward independence
While we receive provincial funding, it covers only part of what’s needed.
Each year, we must raise 60% of our operating budget to continue our work.
Together, we can ensure no woman or child faces violence alone.
