On Sunday, May 10, 2026, our community came together for Green Haven Shelter for Women’s first annual Mother’s Day March: Opening Doors, One Step at a Time.

Together, we walked for more than celebration. We walked for safety, support, hope, and new beginnings for women and children impacted by gender-based violence in our community.

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our participants, donors, sponsors, volunteers, and community partners, we are proud to share that the Mother’s Day March raised:

$23,049.00 !!

These funds will directly support Green Haven Shelter for Women’s essential work, helping ensure that when a woman or child reaches out for safety, support is there.

Thank You to Our Participants

To every person who registered, fundraised, donated, walked, shared our posts, invited a friend, or showed up in support: thank you.

Your presence helped create a powerful morning of community care. Whether you walked in honour of a mother, grandmother, caregiver, survivor, friend, loved one, or your own journey, every step helped send a clear message:

Women and children deserve safety. Survivors deserve support. No one should have to face violence alone.

We are so grateful to everyone who chose to spend part of their Mother’s Day with us.
