Help FRIDA HARTLEY SHELTER FOR WOMEN AND CHILDREN by donating 10x LAPTOPS for Skills Training for our Women
Here's a little more info about this opportunity...
At the FHS, we’re more than a place of refuge — we’re a space of growth, learning, and transformation. As part of our empowerment program, we provide skills training to women who have experienced homelessness, GBV, and economic hardship. These women are rebuilding their lives and futures with immense courage — and you can help. We urgently need laptops for our community centre to continue offering vital training in digital literacy, job readiness, and entrepreneurial skills. Many of our workshops — from CV writing and computer basics to small business development — rely on access to functioning laptops. Your donation of a new or gently used laptop can make a direct and lasting difference. With your help, we can bridge the digital divide and equip our women with the tools they need to thrive in today’s world.
Helpful tips
Stay safe
- 1. Don’t pass any personal information to people you haven’t met offline before.
- 2. When meeting one of your contacts offline for the first time, always be sure to arrange to meet in a public place.
- 3. Make sure that you are not left alone with someone that you have never met before.
- 4. Know where you’re going. If you’re headed off the beaten track or into an unfamiliar part of town, be sure you have directions and a GPS or map book.
- 5. If you feel unsafe, consult the person in charge and let him or her know.
- 6. Avoid wearing expensive jewellery: it could get damaged, lost or stolen.
- 7. Ask, ask, ask! If you’re worried about something or concerned about your safety in a certain situation, ask the person in charge.
