Wellspring Family Resource & Crisis Centre

When you’re scrolling through Facebook and you see just what an awesome community we live in! Thank you Bugz & Beanerz Play Place & Creperie! This is so unexpected but so appreciated! #WhitecourtisAwesome #CommunitySupport

It is that time of year in which thanks is given and appreciation is shown. Here at Wellspring Family Resource & Crisis Centre we are grateful for all of the ongoing support we receive from our community. Your donations make such a difference for the women and children we work with throughout the year. By providing donation items, you help our clients meet their needs and feel prepared to take on tasks such as finding a new home or securing new employment. Often in a crisis there isn't time to grab every item that might be needed when accessing emergency shelter - the items on the following wish list can make all the difference for a family in need. Please consider helping out if you can. #WellspringFamilyResourceandCrisisCentre #CommunitySupport #WomensShelter #OutreachCentre #GiveThanks #GiveBack #LikeandShare

We would like to send our condolences to the family and friends of John Dahl who passed away last week at the age of 93. John was an integral part of the foundation of Wellspring and had continued to support our initiatives for the remainder of his life. John was a business man, a historian, a family man and a beloved member of our community. His smile and always friendly demeanor will sadly be missed.
