Women living on low income are provided with the opportunity to work together in a non-traditional work environment. These women earn income in the form of goods and services, as well as experience increased social connections and support, improved quality of life, and increased employability skills.
Hands Earning Respect for Self
Sponsored and supported by the Every Woman's Centre, HERS operates as a retail business which produces and sells "one-of-a-kind" items to the general public. HERS offers a concrete & viable program for women experiencing economic hardship the opportunity to recognize their existing marketable skills, to learn new ones and to earn income in the form of goods and services.
​
The HERS participants work co-operatively, improving their quality of life for themselves while supporting one another. The goals of the project are achieved through project outcomes for the participants which will help them develop new, useful skill sets for future benefit. All donations and money earned goes directly back into the HERS Project and its clientele!
Special Display
The HERS Gift Shop will be featuring a Special Display each month!
March will feature “Lighting“.
The history of “Lighting” began with fire and torches in ancient times and has evolved to include the invention of candles, oil lamps, gas lighting, incandescent light bulbs and now LED and Laser. Lighting can now adjust brightness and color, allow users to create various atmospheres to suit the desired mood and task at hand. Lighting has always played a crucial role in enhancing the ambience of interior spaces, visual interest, sets a mood, and allows you to showcase your personal style.
