Ride to Refuge set to take place in East Royalty on Sept. 23 for Blooming House
Liz Corney, left, director of development at Blooming House, and Bethany Robinson, community engagement co-ordinator at the women’s homeless shelter, are hoping to hold the facility's first-ever fundraiser on Sept. 23. - Dave Stewart/SaltWireCHARLOTTETOWN, P.E.I. — Operators of a Charlottetown’s women’s homeless shelter are hoping to host their first fundraising event since the facility opened in 2019.
Community donations and government funding helped cover a lot of costs in the first four-plus years, but Corney said donations have been dropping, making the upcoming fundraiser that much more important. A lot of costs, such as a new dishwasher that is set to arrive soon, are covered by community donations, but Corney says the shelter needs more help with keeping the doors open and adding more services.
