The AAP believes strongly in giving back to our community so for February, our Volunteer Month, we are going to volunteer at the Women in Need Society (WINS) instead of having our monthly dinner meeting.

We will spend the evening sorting goods at the donation center, which will be either given away to women in need and their families, or sold with proceeds going to the programs and services WINS offers. Last year WINS supported over 17,000 individuals - women, men, and children. This will be a heartfelt and feel good evening giving back to those in need.

Donation Centre Address: Unit 128, 1220 – 28 St. NE. If you get lost on your way to the Donation Centre please call 403-255-5012 ext. 227

You may also wish to dress in layers as the warehouse can sometime get cold. WINS will provide all other necessary equipment for your volunteer activities.

What's for Dinner: Pizza and snacks will be provided

Orientation: Upon arrival, your group will have the opportunity to view a video about WINS and you’ll receive a facility tour and an orientation explaining the volunteer tasks.
