Through You … There is LIFE after slavery

I was in a program at the Samaritan House, a women’s recovery home in Vancouver, when I was first encouraged to apply for the Shared Hope WIN program.

I had office skills from previous employment that I knew I could build on if I just had the chance … but with a past that’s hard to explain, a huge gap in employment and zero self-confidence, I had very little hope.

So imagine my surprise when I learned I was accepted! For the first time in more than 10 long years, I felt the glimmer of promise.

The WIN program gave me an opportunity to learn new computer programs and reacquaint myself with old ones. I was able to brush up on basic office skills like answering phones and filing. The WIN program not only gave me a strong resume, but it boosted my self-confidence and self-worth.

 —Beth

For the sake of young women like Beth, please be as generous as possible.

We need your strong support in order to provide women and girls with a safe, loving place to live, where their lives can be restored long-term through medical care, counseling, vocational training, leadership development, and job skills courses.

Slavery is tragic. Life after slavery isn’t easy either.

But your love today, expressed through your generous donation, will help to ease the suffering, pave the way to hope and healing, build the future — restore lives!

The WIN program gave Beth a glimmer of promise.
