Physical Donations
Women In Crisis (Algoma) Inc. would like to thank the community for their tremendous support over the years. It is through your generosity that we have been able to support women and children in many different ways.
After much consideration and heartbreak, we have decided that we are no longer able to accept used clothing, toys or books at the Shelter. The donation bins have become a Health & Safety issue for donors, women and children and Shelter Staff. This has been a very difficult decision, but we can no longer have the risk it creates for all involved.
Thank you for your understanding in this matter If you have any questions please contact us!
