Addiction is a ruthless disease that affects individuals and families regardless of education, cultural background, or socio-economic status. Sometimes you can be lucky to have people willing to help you in your struggles to gain sobriety.

McDougall House has been a part of the community in Alberta since 1969 when it was founded in response to the lack of community resources available for women with alcohol and drug related problems. We offer residential addiction treatment for 40 women each year with our 3-month program. In our 50+ years of operation, hundreds of women have successfully graduated from the McDougall House. Our vision is to foster recovery from addictions, and our mission is to provide a safe treatment environment that empowers women in recovery from addictions through knowledge, awareness, and behavioural change.

This holiday season, we're working to make the house a warmer, safer place for the women who call it home. Our goal is to replace all the windows, eliminating drafts and ensuring everyone stays cozy and protected. No one should have to face the cold this Christmas—your generous donation can help make this a reality. Please give today and bring warmth and comfort to those in need. The projected cost to replace all the windows is $50,000, and our Giving Tuesday goal of raising $5,000 will go towards reaching this target. 

You can help support these women find their way to productive and rewarding lives for themselves, their families, and their community. Tax receipts are provided for all levels of donation.

If you, or someone you know, is in the window business we would also happily accept other forms of support through partnering together. Please reach out to ed@mcdougallhouse.com if you would like to help in another way.
