The high standards of service that HTHA provides throughout the year to its clients would not be possible if it were not for the generous financial donations from caring individuals and community-minded businesses such as yourselves. 

Your contributions have a positive impact on the lives of those who use our services each and every day. Thanks to generous gifts we are able to provide service users with essential needs while in shelter. Things such as emergency transportation to safety when they need to get out of their situation, medications that are needed and may have been left behind, personal care items that they were not able to bring with them,  or even a comfy pair of pyjamas for those who arrive in the middle of the night and need something to change into.

If you have any questions please contact [email protected] anytime to discuss. 

Thank you for considering supporting HTHA and we look forward to everything we can accomplish together.

You will find a number of options for donating to HTHA, and no matter how big or small, every dollar helps to save lives of those experiencing IPV in our community.
