Donate to the St. John's Women's Centre
Created in 1973, the St. John’s Women’s Centre is the charitable non-profit arm of the St. John’s Status of Women Council. The Women’s Centre is dedicated to providing FREE women-centred, community-based programs delivered within a safe, non-judgemental, open, and caring environment. Throughout its long history, the Women’s Centre was instrumental in opening the first transition house for women fleeing domestic violence and was home to the first rape crisis centre in the province.

All of our programs and services are women-focused and for women only and aim to provide opportunity for personal growth, empowerment, and social connection. All programs are offered free of charge.

Donate to the SKS Foundation
The SKS Foundation is a legacy project in memory of Susan Kathryn Shiner. Susan spent her adult life working toward making the world a better place for women and children. For decades Susan had a vision for the creation of a Childcare Centre at Iris Kirby House. Her vision has evolved in to a plan to open a Family Center and eventually a childcare centre for any children who identify having current and past experiences of trauma.
