Women’s transition houses across Greater Victoria will be able to continue helping women in need, thanks to a donation from Royal LePage. “[The] Royal LePage Shelter Foundation was started up by Royal LePage back in the late 90s to support local shelters across Canada,” said Bill Ethier, president and managing broker of Royal LePage Coast Capital Realty. The $42,157.93 raised by Royal LePage in 2014 was split evenly between The Cridge Transition House for Women, Victoria Women’s Transition House, Margaret Laurence House and Sooke Transition House.
