"Being given a computer changed my ability to do the work. It was my life line. There were many times I wanted to give up, but my counsellor was always there to encourage me. Times Change saved my life, and I am now working full time, while working toward having my own business. Without Times Change, none of this would have been possible.” . - Shelly Ann, Career Planning workshop graduate |
By donating $100 you become a part of the Power of 100, a strong network of people uniting to change lives and connect through a common goal. Although times have changed for women, the reality is that women still struggle to achieve their employment goals.
More than 1500 women come through the doors of Times Change every year in need of immediate help with employment and career direction, job training and support. Some face personal and family challenges. Some are single mothers who are living below the poverty line. Many have experienced a loss of employment, which leaves them with low self-esteem, lack of confidence and no financial support.

Our services continue to be free, thanks to the generous support of our funders and donors. However, each year Times Change must raise additional funds to maintain existing programs and services.
