Make a Wish Campaign

A fun and unique way of making the Holiday Season special for the women and children at our shelters! 
You get to decide how your donation dollars are spent by choosing from a unique array of 'gifts', specially chosen to meet the needs of women and children in our community who truly need your help.  Click Here to 'shop' from the Make a Wish catalogue!  (The catalogue is full of really nice photos so it may take a little bit longer to download.  So be patient - it's worth the wait!)

Donation Guidelines

The Medicine Hat Women’s Shelter Society is grateful for the support of our community.  Should you wish to donate something from our wish list please call us to make arrangements to drop off your gently used or new item(s). Should you have something not listed on our wish list that you would like to donate, please contact us to find out if we are currently in need of that item.

Regrettably, we are not able to accept clothing donations due to our lack of storage space. We collaborate with the Salvation Army and our clients receive vouchers to purchase clothing from them at no charge.
