In your own words, tell us about your business, organization, or initiative.

The Woman’s Friend Society provides affordable housing for women in a safe and supportive environment in the historic Emmerton House.

Tell us a bit about you and why you do what you do. Share your passions for your business, organization, or initiative.

We offer a five-year residency to our residents. In that time they are able to obtain a degree, acquire a skill and save money to move forward in life. Many of our residents express the relief they feel not having to worry about housing and having a safe place to live where they can now concentrate on improving their lives.
