Airdrie P.O.W.E.R. day shelter has launched a new fundraising campaign, a monthly 50/50 raffle, which they hope Airdronians will come out and support. 

P.O.W.E.R. serves as a beacon of hope and assistance for women navigating abusive circumstances. Their mission is clear: to provide resources, support, and a safe haven for those in need within our community.

The 50/50 raffle, will happen monthly half of the proceeds go to the lucky winner, while the other half is reinvested into Airdrie Power's essential programs, said Said Dana Gable, Airdrie P.O.W.E.R.'s Operations Manager. 

"P.O.W.E.R. exists to bring resources and support to women experiencing domestic violence in our community. We are here to make sure that women who are in abusive situations get the support and help that they need in whatever form that takes for them as individuals."
