The local YWCA is going to be benefiting from a big donation by Shoppers Drug Mart.
More than $10,000 was raised during the recent ‘Giving Shelter’ campaign, and that money will be going towards the Crossroads Shelter for women experiencing gender-based violence.
This annual campaign is national in scope, yet locally based, with customers and employees donating directly to women’s shelters in their community to ensure that resources and programming are available to meet the needs of women across the country.
YWCA Executive Director Kim Dolan says they are deeply moved by this incredibly compassionate achievement, made possible through the combined support of our community and the entire Peterborough Shoppers Drug Mart team.
