THE SEIU-WEST YOUNG WORKERS COMMITTEE (YWC) WANTS YOU TO TAKE ACTION TO STOP VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN

The December 6 National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women marks the anniversary of the murders of 14 young women at l’École Polytechnique de Montréal in 1989.

We recognize this day to remind us that there is still work to do to eliminate violence against women in Canada so that one day gender-based violence will end.

The SEIU-West Young Worker Committee (YWC) encourages you to do your part in raising awareness on violence against women and to demonstrate your solidarity for those who provide support to women in need.

We are asking you to send a picture of yourself or with a group of SEIU-West members wearing red during the week of December 6.

By participating in this campaign, you will be entered into a draw for one of four pairs of Hillberg & Berk red sparkle ball earrings the proceeds of which go to survivors of domestic violence in Saskatchewan.

There are two ways to be entered into the draw:

• Send picture of yourself or a group of SEIU-West members wearing red during the week of December 6th by email to [email protected].
• Send us a picture of your donation to your local woman’s shelter to [email protected].

The deadline to enter is December 13, 2021!

For a list of requested items for women's shelters, visit the Moose Jaw Transition House donations list, the Saskatoon Interval House donations list, and the South West Crisis Services website.
