Being a mom is a hard job; being a single mom is even harder.
Kaleo is a Christian organization founded by Layna Haley, to bring hope, love, and connection to vulnerable families in the Greater St. Albert area by supporting and strengthening women. We do this through the development and implementation of “Connected Communities” support programs.
Each year over 3,000 women and children are positively impacted through our programs; most are repeat customers. We believe strength and healing come from understanding your value and worth, learning new skills, engaging in meaningful community and serving others.
