WOMEN IN NEED SOCIETY (WINS)

helping women and their families thrive in Calgary

Whether you donate, shop, or volunteer, you are supporting transformative programs that benefit people in our Calgary community, because...

Our Work

For more than three decades, Women in Need Society (WINS) has been committed to helping people in need in Calgary through our community programs that provide basic needs, emotional support, and vital resources. These programs enable individuals to build resiliency that inspires them and their families to thrive. We are able to do this through revenues generated through our Thrift Stores and through the generous donations of Calgarians like you.

Why shop WINS?

We are Calgary’s homegrown charity social enterprise that funds our community programs and services through donations and revenues from our Thrift Stores. Rather uniquely, we are able to contribute your donations, both funds and goods, to our programs by operating separate sustainable shopping brands, bulk thrifting More Store, and online thrifting Twice New to cover other expenses.
