Public Announcement
It has come to our attention that an individual is claiming to support single mothers and has been collecting donations and sponsorships in a manner that has led some to believe they are affiliated with the Calgary Single Mothers Society.
We would like to clarify that this individual is not associated with our organization in any capacity.
To avoid any confusion or misrepresentation, we kindly ask all businesses and potential sponsors to verify the authenticity of any fundraising requests by contacting us directly at 403-971-4093.
Please note that any official outreach from the Calgary Single Mothers Society will only be made through formal proposal letters or emails bearing our official logo and the signature of our President.
We appreciate your continued support and understanding.
