"If you think you're too small to have an impact,
try going to bed with a mosquito”, Anita Roddick, Founder & Co-Chair of the Body Shop
Sistering counts on the support of our many donors and friends
to make a difference in the lives of the women we serve and in the world in which they live. Our
supporters share Sistering’s belief in working to change social conditions which endanger women's
welfare and in helping to enable women to take greater control over their lives.
Community support helps us meet the demands of the growing
number of women using our services. The women who visit our programs are homeless, living in poverty,
suffering from poor health, social isolation and the devastating impact of violence and abuse.
With your assistance, we are able to continue to provide some of the most marginalized women in Toronto with a safe and welcoming environment where women receive practical and emotional supports such as: a daily hot meal; showers and laundry facilities; clothing; access to health care professionals; informal
counselling, support groups and other program activities; housing services; pre-employment and community economic development projects for artists and labourers; and referrals to appropriate agencies. These supports enable women to take greater control of their lives.
There are a number of ways you can choose to support Sistering.
We hope you will find a convenient way to do so. Every dollar you donate, every hour you
volunteer, every fundraising event you attend and every item of clothing and goods you donate to Sistering
make a direct impact on the life of a woman in need.
