Another donation to help rebuild Haven House in Cambridge
The Lyle S. Hallman Foundation has cut a cheque for $75,000 to assist Women’s Crisis Services of Waterloo Region in their “Rebuild Haven House…She Deserves It” campaign.
“Children who have experienced domestic violence are among the most vulnerable. The Lyle S Hallman Foundation has invested in Haven House as a way of supporting those children to grow and thrive in a safe and supportive environment. We are pleased to be a part of this important project. “Says Laura J. Manning, Executive Director of the Lyle S. Hallman Foundation.
Mary Zilney, CEO of Women’s Crisis Services of Waterloo Region says “We are extremely thankful for the generosity and ongoing support of the Lyle S. Hallman Foundation. They continue to be a strong partner with Women’s Crisis Services of Waterloo Region, having provided funding for the rebuilding of Haven House and previously Anselma House. 45% of our residents are children; therefore our goals align perfectly in that together we can help break the intergenerational cycle of abuse and inspire children and their moms to Move Beyond Violence.”
WCSWR still needs to raise over $3-million. Construction is expected to be completed by June.
