Bring a Child a Smile Pyjama Campaign 2024
This year, 497 pairs of pyjamas were collected through the “Bring A Child A Smile” committee’s PJ campaign, marking the 12th anniversary of this important initiative led by local education workers with CUPE Local 829. The campaign’s mission is to ensure that new pyjamas are always available for individuals entering shelters throughout the year.
Thanks to the generosity of the public, CUPE 829 educational support workers have donated approximately 500 pairs of pyjamas annually to the Medicine Hat Women’s Shelter over the past decade, totaling around 6,000 sets!
Your support continues to make a difference in the lives of those in need, and we are truly grateful for your contribution and our opportunity to help.
