Recipient story
New beginning after prison release
GIVIT
First Nations Support
Domestic & Family Violence
Christmas 2025
Being released from prison into homelessness with no money, phone, belongings, or family support. She is grieving the recent loss of her little brother and is struggling with her mental health. Despite this, she is motivated to engage in AOD support, counselling, and rebuild her life, but she cannot do this safely without basic essentials.
We are requesting support so she can begin her new chapter with dignity. She urgently needs a phone for contact with services, essential items, and short‑term assistance to keep her safe and connected during this vulnerable transition. She deserves the opportunity to start again, and with the right help, she has the strength to move forward and create a safer, healthier future for herself.
