With the return of cold weather, a simple call can save a life. If you see a person struggling in the cold, please call 211 so they can get the support they need to be safe. #211Manitoba #HelpStartsHere

So grateful for all the new coats from Mayor @ScottGillingham so Wpg kids can be warm, make it to school safely, and play outdoors with their friends! 👏👏👏❤️

Dropping off new coats for kids @UnitedWayWpg on a cold day. Thank you Pres & CEO Connie Walker @walkerconn and team for the important work you do across Winnipeg. Also great to meet Melrose from the Central Park Women’s Resource Centre. #wpgpoli

Great news @MBGov and @WinnipegDCSP! And we can all play a role. If you see someone unsheltered and in need of non-emergency support, call 211 - a trained, compassionate outreach team will respond! We are all Winnipeg. ❤️

Sometimes taking a chance to do things differently IS the solution. Huge thanks to @MBGov and those who made this possible. @WinnipegDCSP provides a visible presence downtown 24/7 and help our community's most vulnerable. Right resources at the right time make the difference.



A critical investment. The need is unlike anything I have seen and frontline agencies are doing all they can. Thank you @HStefansonMB @MLASquires @MBGov! 👏👏👏

Our government is committed to helping make our communities safe. That path starts with a warm, safe roof over your head. Today we’re taking action for Manitobans seeking shelter and affordable housing. #mbpoli Read more here: bit.ly/3FwCaHv

“I have unconditional friendships & a reason to smile.” Thanks to caring donors like you, Sammy found a sense of purpose, confidence, & community by volunteering at Thrive Thrift Shop, a donor-supported organization. #WeAreAllWpg bit.ly/3dibcHX


So many of us take our network of social support for granted. As a community, we need to be there for those who have no one. We are all Wpg. ❤️

Loneliness isn’t just an uncomfortable feeling—it’s a health issue. Everyone deserves to belong & the care of community. If you could use support, but don’t know where to start, #211Manitoba is here to help. #211Tuesday #HelpStartsHere bit.ly/3DSSth9



What a gift to work with so many amazing people across our city! Humanity every day! Thank you! There will be lots of time to say good-bye. For now, let's do all we can in the 2022 UW Campaign. Every dollar makes a difference for someone in our city. We are all Winnipeg! ❤️

It is with very mixed emotion that the volunteer Board of Trustees of United Way Winnipeg announces that Connie Walker has communicated her plan to retire in the spring of 2023. Full information here: unitedwaywinnipeg.ca/connie-walker-…
