Hello fellow nursing students and Faculty,
We are fourth-year nursing students at the University of Manitoba that are currently in our community clinical rotation at Agape Table!
Agape Table is an independent, charitable, and non-profit organization established in 1980 to help nourish the mind, spirit, and body of Winnipeg’s most vulnerable sector. Agape works to improve the lives of those in need by welcoming everyone to its table without judgment or bias, offering food, friendship, and support. We are currently working on a project aimed at addressing the hydration, and first aid needs of our most vulnerable community members. These include men, women, children, the homeless, working people, low-income seniors, single parents, persons with disabilities, and newcomers.
Inadequate access to drinking water can have a negative impact on the individual’s health and well-being, especially during the hot summer months. Our hydration community project aims to provide sustainable solutions and support to ensure every community member can access safe hydration options.
Donations can be made in person at Agape Table, 364 Furby Street in Winnipeg, from 0700h - 1400h Monday to Friday. Monetary donations can be made at the link below.
