Support the Power of Pajamas Campaign, part of the Thompson Crisis Centre’s 16 Days of Activism against gender-based violence.

Mary Demare, outreach worker with the Crisis Centre, tells us how the campaign began.

“Two women from Domestic Violence Shelters of Manitoba started the Power of Pajama program. Our ED, Helen Trudeau, heard of the project and decided to join in unity with other shelters in Manitoba.”  

Demare said they are collecting pajamas in all sizes for children and women, looking to provide comfort at a difficult time in their lives.

She added that people often arrive at the shelter with nothing but the clothes on their backs, showing just how dire the situations they are leaving can be.
