Rowan House Emergency Shelter provides Foothills women and their children a safe environment with temporary housing and other services that lead to a life free of violence.
At this time of year we like to provide the women of the shelter with what many of us see as essentials, but to them may seem totally out of financial reach.
We are asking that you participate in our Gift Card Campaign this Holiday Season. Look for a brightly covered Rowan House gift box at one of the following locations:
Okotoks - Okotoks Public Library, Tribal Connections, Wild Rose Jewellery and Gifts
High River – High River Centennial Library, Colossi's Coffee House, Sobey's
Black Diamond/Turner Valley – Sheep River Library, The Chuckwagon Café
Longview – Ian Tyson's Navajo Mug
Nanton – Quality of Life Foundation (FCSS Office)
Vulcan – Sarini Fine Jewellery, FCSS Office

- Enjoy “shopping” for a gift card.
- Bring the gift card to one of the locations listed above.
- Our Christmas “Elves” will pick up the gift cards and distribute them to the families we work with.
