NEW underwear, a
tooth brush and a
nightgown may not be
on everyone’s wish list,
but to the women who
will spend Christmas in
the safe haven of Emily
Murphy House they
are a welcome gift.

When fleeing abusive rela-
tionships, the women who
seek shelter at the transition
house don’t always pack a
bag.

“When they leave their
home, they usually come out
without anything,” says
Maureen Gabriel, executive
director of North Shore Crisis
Services Saciety.

The society relies heavily
on donations from the com-

erauinity to operate the 18-bed

transition house and associat-
ed services that include a 24-
hour crisis line and public
education programs.

West Vancouver's Ferry
Building Gallery is helping
out by collecting donations
beneath its “gift tree.”

All gifts placed beneath the
tree will be given to North
Shore Crisis Services Society
and the temporary. residents
of Emily Murphy House.

Gifts should be appropri-
ate for children and teenagers,
babies and moms. Gift certiti-
cates are also welcome.
Cheque or cash donations will

_ receive a tax-deductible
receipt. :

Gifts should be wrapped
and labelled as to contents,
and can be dropped off dur-
ing gallery hours. The gallery
is located at 1414 Argyle,
open daily from 11 a.m. to 5
p.m., closed Monda'
gifts will be picked up for dis-

THE following people
recently appeared in
North Vancouver court
in connection with
drinking and driving
related offences:

Otto Joseph Simon, 61, of
North Vancouver, was fined

&, S200 and ree

guilty of impaired driving
ene

tribution on \ .

Meanwhile, employees of
Sateway’s Lynn Valley Centre
store have supported Emily
Murphy House with a $9,000
cheque donation, presented
last week.

Employees raised the
money last) June through
September through a variety
of events, including a salmon
barbecue, a hot dog sale, a
Shoot for Hoops event and a
50/50 draw.

Gabriel said the mor
would be used to run two
programs offered to Emily
Murphy House residents: a
cooperative play group for
children traumatized by vio-
lence and a parenting educa-
tion group for mothers.
