Medicine Hat women’s shelter hopeful for government cash to support renovations
The Medicine Hat Women’s Shelter Society has yet to secure government funding to help cover the costs of renovations and an expansion of the shelter.
Executive Director Natasha Carvalho said Friday the society does have a loan in place to cover the cost of the project but they are hopeful a United Conservative Party election promise will come to fruition.
“Back when they were campaigning and [they said that] when they first got into power there was going to be a $10-million disbursement to all the shelters across the province,” Carvalho said.
