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.

@jimcarr_wpg was a long standing @UnitedWayWpg volunteer, leading many efforts to make a difference for people in our city. Jim was always an inspiration, a statesman, a mentor, and a friend. My sincere condolences to his family and large network of friends and colleagues. ♥️

GREAT concert last night - and the lyric that stood out for me -"No more lives torn apart, That wars would never start, And time would heal all hearts, And everyone would have a friend, ..." THANK YOU

Today we announce a transformational gift made by local business owner and quiet philanthropist Miriam Bergen through a bequest in her will.
We could not be more grateful for this unprecedented gift of approximately $500 million.

@carolyntrono @blumczynska Yes! On week two! Arghhh! It’s a doozy.
English
@blumczynska We had it … not Covid… 3 weeks - coughing, sore throat, no energy, congestion. Feel better !
English
I’ve tested multiple times and days apart, it’s not COVID thankfully.
But whatever this is, it’s taken every bit of strength out of me.
I haven’t been this ill in a long time. 🤒

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! 👏👏👏
Heather Stefanson@HStefansonMB
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

Thanks to caring donors like you, Sammy found a sense of purpose, confidence, & community by volunteering at Thrive Thrift Shop, a donor-supported organization.

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. ❤️
unitedwaywpg@UnitedWayWpg
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

Thank you Winnipeg for allowing me the opportunity to serve as your Mayor.

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! ❤️
