I'm proud to be a WINGMAN again this year. Thank you for your support as I continue to advocate for this greatly needed organization.

WINGMAN Campaign Oct1st to November 1st, 2024

Richard Le Sueur kicks off our WINGMAN Campaign as the first of our Featured 30 WINGMEN!

Richard has been a long-time supporter of WINGS, and we are honoured to have his ongoing support of our WINGMAN initiative. Richard has stepped up to be a WINGMAN again this year to help better the lives of others in need.

In his words:

“I am now retired after several careers. Twenty years in the military (RCAF), small business ownership, non-profit community work and enforcement services. My focus now is on the support and betterment of children and their families.

I choose to be a WINGMAN in order to better the lives of the children coming from domestic abuse and violence. We continue a major battle to put an end to the abuse, however while doing so it is important to support the children and their mothers to better their lives while stopping the abuse cycle.

As a WINGMAN I pledge to continue advocating for increased resources and support for those suffering from domestic violence and abuse.”

Thank you, Richard, for standing up against domestic violence and encouraging others to do the same.

The WINGMAN Campaign for Wings of Providence begins today.

I have been a supporter of WINGS for many years, however this year with the support of my wife I am sharing more of the reasoning behind our support.

When Kim was a young mother back in Malaysia she went through some difficult times with the father of the two girls I now consider daughters.

Unfortunately, Kim was basically on her own and there was no organization such as WINGS that she could turn to, making it very hard for her at times. Fortunately for her, and me, she survived the process with only lasting memories and some mental stress.

Now, we do all we can to help those going through similar, or worse, circumstances.

We thank you for your support for this most worthy cause. A link to donate is in the comments.

🧡 At WINGS Shelter, we reflect on the importance of acknowledging the history and ongoing impact of residential schools on Indigenous communities.

As a shelter committed to supporting women and children escaping domestic violence, we honour the strength and resilience of Indigenous survivors. We recognize that trauma caused by colonialism continues to affect generations, making our work towards healing, safety, and justice even more vital.

Today and every day, we listen, learn, and stand with Indigenous peoples in the journey toward reconciliation. Together, we strive for a future where every voice is heard and every person is valued. 🧡

Here are some resources and events in Edmonton to honour and commemorate the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation:

Unfortunately we do have to be on the lookout for posers.

Remember folks,

Posers, fakes and embellishers routinely surface at this time of year in anticipation of having their egos stroked by unknowing but appreciative school children.

School Administrators must ensure that anyone speaking to their students in the lead up to Remembrance Day be properly screened / have their bonafides confirmed. This will assist in preventing imposters from insulting legitimate military service and sacrifices of our wounded and fallen.

This month we learned about Wings of Providence Build a Backpack campaign when they shared with us an immediate need.

Here's what they wrote us.

"I am reaching out to share an urgent need at WINGS, our second stage shelter for women and children fleeing domestic violence. As you may know, we are committed to providing a safe and supportive environment for our residents, and this mission is enhanced by the incredible support we receive from partners like you in the community.

At WINGS, we have several projects underway, all aimed at empowering our families and helping them rebuild their lives. However, we've recently encountered an immediate need that we hope you can assist with. Each year, thanks to the generous donation of a long-term supporter, we provide our children with new school sneakers to ensure they start the school year ready and confident.

Since the distribution of that donation and In just the past week and a half, we have welcomed 15 new children into our facilities. To prepare them for school, we have already supplied them with backpacks and school supplies, but we would love to provide them with the necessary footwear as well. We are seeking support from the Wolfe Pack Warriors Foundation to help us purchase 15 new pairs of shoes and socks for these children.

We are incredibly grateful for your consideration of this request. Your support would make a significant difference in the lives of these children, helping them feel equipped and ready for a successful school year. We look forward to the possibility of collaborating with your wonderful foundation and building a lasting relationship."

We are absolutely able to help! Wings of Providence thank you for the work you are doing to support kids and their families!

Today, for the third time, I have become a WINGMAN for Wings of Providence.

I have a long history of supporting WINGS (Women In Need Growing Stronger), a second stage shelter for women and their children escaping domestic abuse, and this organization is very close to my heart.

I have had several careers over my 75 years ranging from military service to community service to law enforcement, and I know of far too many families torn apart by domestic abuse.

Therefore I ask you to support me as I support these mothers and children by making their lives better. You may do so by clicking the link in the comments below.

Thank you.

I'm proud to be a WINGMAN for WINGS. Please donate and help me support women and children fleeing domestic violence!
