Victoria Women in Need Community Cooperative
The Core of What We Do
We believe women deserve equal voice and opportunity to provide healthy, financially sustainable lives for themselves and their families in vibrant, supportive and sustainable communities. WIN collects donated goods and provides affordable high quality clothing, household items and furniture through three Resale Shops in Victoria. The revenue from our shops, together with financial donations, covers the entire cost of running our non profit cooperative, and funding our empowerment programs for women.
Transforming our Community One Woman at a Time
Our programs are there for women along each step of the way as she journeys towards financial self sufficiency – we are there when she enters a transition house, we are there when she is setting up her own home, we are there when she is building a strong community of support. And finally, when she is ready, we are there to support her to pursue the steps that she identifies are important in her journey to getting a job or starting her own business.
How You Make A Difference
We believe in the power of each one of us. Everyone can participate in making a difference in a woman's life. You can become actively involved by:
- Shopping at one of our Resale Shops
