YWCA Banff - A Turning Point for Women
Walk a Mile in Her Shoes

Have you got what it takes to fill these shoes?

We know you do.

Walk A Mile In Her Shoes combines big hearts with big feet, and brings the whole community together for a great cause. The event premise is simple: men walk through downtown Banff in women's shoes, raising eyebrows and funds in support of YWCA Banff's activities to stop domestic violence.

There are many women and families who are falling through the cracks in the social support system. Each $250 you raise provides one night of safe emergency accommodation, including counseling, for one woman and child. Funds you raise by participating in Walk A Mile In Her Shoes will help support women and children faced with domestic violence during a critical turning point in their lives. You can make a difference in three easy steps:

  • 1. SAY YES. Sign up for Walk A Mile in Her Shoes. You can sign up as an individual, or recruit a team to join you – Why go it alone?
  • 2. RAISE FUNDS. Ask your colleagues, your suppliers, your clients - anyone who will give you money to walk around in a snazzy pair of heels (don't worry, we provide those !). Each registered participant receives their own web page to accept on-line donations and keep track of the funds raised. Your goal is $500 - about how much it costs to provide 2 nights of free shelter accommodation and counseling for women and children fleeing from domestic violence.
  • 3. WALK THE WALK. Join other brave 'soles' hoofing it for a great cause. Mark Friday September 24, 12:30-1:30 pm in your calendar and join us at Banff Central Park for a nice stroll in aid of a great cause.

Join us and make a difference.

One step at a time.
