On Saturday, November 22, we had an amazing CFUW KW team of 20 women and 1 man who participated in a 6 km walk, in support of women and children experiencing domestic violence.

It was chilly, but we had SUNSHINE for our walk from Waterloo Town Square to Victoria Street in Kitchener and back.  And yes – the hot chocolate and BAGELS from Poppy’s Bagel & Bakery were delicious! (See the smiling faces in the photo attached for proof!)

This event was a fundraiser for Women’s Crisis Services of Waterloo Region with monies raised going to the Anselma House & Haven House.  Our team raised $6,260 by the day of the walk, and there are still a few donations on the way.

Thank you to our walkers for coming out for the event, and to all those who supported us with a donation.  By walking, donating, and raising awareness through Voices Empower, we can help reduce risk, support survivors and honour the memory of women whose lives were lost to violence.

Thank you!
