You are invited to help change the lives of immigrant women in our community who have been victims of violence.

Join IWSO on November 26, 2015 at the annual Roses and Candles Gala. Your presence means so much and your gala ticket investment means more immigrant women and children can get the crisis care they need in Ottawa.

About IWSOIWSO is a unique multi-service and charitable organization providing services to immigrant women and their children for the past twenty-seven years.  In the recent year ending March 31, 2015,  IWSO provided services to approximately 2,500 women, 400 of whom were victims/survivors of violence.Through these services over the years, we have made a difference in the lives of thousands of women and the Roses and Candles Gala is one of our annual activities to celebrate their achievements, honour our many supporters and community partners and raise additional funds to assist IWSO as it continues to serve this target group.
