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

Our Work
Women in Need Society (WINS) helps women and their families thrive by providing access to basic needs, emotional support, and employment training through our Community Support programs and services.
As a Calgary-based charity operating a social enterprise—combining purpose with sustainability—we reinvest revenue from our seven WINS Thrift Stores and the MORE Store into these programs and services, alongside the generous contributions from our community partners.
Together, everyone WINS!


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 and the More Store. So when you shop at our Stores, you directly make an impact and help us help more people in need.

Why support WINS?
We change lives by providing barrier-free access to programs and services for women and those who identify as women. You can be a part of our cause too! Become a valued WINS volunteer, partner with us to amplify our efforts, or make a donation to support our mission. Together, we can create a positive change and uplift those in need.
