Spring '22 Event
Helping Refugees

We were thrilled to be able to gather in person again with our members at the Atwater Club.  Our theme was Helping Refugees.  We heard from the Welcome Collective, the Afghan Women's Centre and  Montreal City Mission; three non-profits helping newly arrived refugees in Montreal to start anew.  Our membership voted to donate our collective donation of $17 230 to the Welcome Collective. Our funds will be used to provide essentials to newly arriving families who need the very basics.
