Supporting survivors of gender-based violence

The Spirit of Schlifer Campaign invites Canadians to raise critical funds for the Barbra Schlifer Commemorative Clinic, Canada’s only fully integrated clinic to offer the essential counselling and legal and interpretation services to survivors of gender-based violence. 


When we unite, as friends, family, colleagues, partners and as a community, to support a collective end to gender based violence, we can effect real change.

YOUR IMPACT ECHOES

Because of this Campaign

Gloria sought safety from violence as a refugee in Canada. When she left, she had to go without her two young children. With the Clinic's support, Gloria could file a permanent residence application that included her children and obtain travel visas so they could travel to her. When they arrived, they were granted residence. Reunited and safe from violence, Gloria and her two children can start new in a country as a family.
