The Squamish and Whistler Drop-In Centres will not be accepting donations until Pearl’s opens on June 8.

“These past eight weeks have been a challenge but we have been so blown away by the generosity and support shown by the community,” said Ashley Oakes, Executive Director of Howe Sound Women’s Centre.
“As we move into this new phase, we continue to anticipate an increase in need for the services provided by Howe Sound Women’s Centre,” she said.
