About Shelter Movers:
Shelter Movers provides moving and storage services at no cost to women and children fleeing abuse. We are the only organization of our kind in Canada, and our volunteers are no less exceptional.

Our Montreal chapter will launch shortly. We are growing and looking to add caring and compassionate people to our volunteer team.
