It was named in honour of Sir Hugh John Macdonald, a police magistrate. Throughout his career, Hugh John preached courtesy, compassion, firmness and impartiality. He also practiced those traits. Sir Hugh John Macdonald felt that some offenders had been pushed into their petty crimes due to the harsh social and economic times. He would often suspend sentences and then work to find jobs for the youth. Many times, Hugh John would provide temporary shelter for the young men in his own home. Thus, he not only advocated for disadvantaged youth, but he also set an example by providing shelter and guidance to those in need.The hostel was originally based out of a rented home on Mountain Avenue, but incorporated as a charity two years later and purchased its first home at 175 Mayfair Avenue

The Laurel Centre provides individual and group counselling to women who have experienced childhood and / or adolescent sexual abuse.Significance of the Laurel TreeIn Greek mythology, there is the story of a wood nymph named Daphne who is much like the Greek goddess Diana - independent, athletic - a huntress. In the myth, the god Apollo pursued Daphne in what would be interpreted today as a sexual attack. Daphne called to the river god for help and was transformed into a laurel tree - a symbol of victory and triumph.The Laurel Centre represents the transformation and triumph of its clients. The laurel leaf is a symbol featured in the Centrés logo.History of The Laurel CentreIn the early 1980's those working in the addictions field realized that many addicted women - up to 80% - were also struggling to overcome the trauma resulting from childhood sexual abuse. Many were unable to deal with their addictions because their lives were too painful.At the time there were no services for women that treated addictions and abuse together.

How do I see the University Women's Club? I see three aspects to membership in this Club. The Social aspect is a major way of connecting with women in a positive atmosphere. The Intellectual aspect comes through our conversations, our programs and our Bridge days. The third aspect is advocacy for the betterment of women and girls. As examples, we demonstrate this in our daily attitudes and in our participation in the Winnipeg Council of Women and attendance at the LEAF breakfast every year. Look around. There are connections to be made and to hang on to. As we sing in the Recreational Singing group, 'Make new friends, but keep the old; one is silver and the other gold.'
