Siloam Mission Gets Lifeline Funding | Winnipeg News

Description

Siloam Mission is getting a major provincial funding boost to keep its daytime drop-in center and a temporary overnight shelter open until March, allowing them to rehire laid-off staff and retain current employees. Facing a $4.4 million deficit that threatened 16 jobs, this lifeline will also help house up to 100 people overnight after hours, offering more meals, safety, and services to those in crisis. While part of a broader provincial effort to combat Winnipeg’s overdose crisis, Siloam stresses that demand still far outpaces available space — calling for sustained government, funder, and community support to meet the growing need.
