Recently I was asked to represent the PSSAW (Peer Support Services for Abused Women), along with staff member Meghan Wright, at the kick off of the Calgary Herald Christmas Fund. Every year the Calgary Herald newspaper collects public donations and then picks fourteen service organizations in Calgary to receive these funds. This money makes it possible for these groups to give to people who need help - from food to counseling - and make Calgary a more caring place for people to live. I am proud to be a part of this organization that does so much to help women about to leave, and who have left, abusive situations and to have helped secure our place among those groups receiving funds this year.
