Canadian Muslim Women's Institute (CMWI) has been serving refugee and immigrant communities in Winnipeg for over 10 years.  Never have we experienced a year like last year.  We have grown from serving 8-10 families daily to 40 and more each day.  To continue to support the newcomers, CMWI needs help from the community more than ever before. You are cordially invited to CMWI's first fundraiser Jameela.
