Organismes sans but lucratif à Vancouver

For more than 130 years, The Salvation Army has had the privilege of serving vulnerable people in communities across Canada. Last year, we helped over 1.8 million people in the Vancouver area. The Salvation Army not only provides the necessities of life such as food, clothing and shelter, but our programs address needs such as language barriers, loneliness, unemployment and family challenges.

Hello!

Hope you're doing well.

I'm Aparna Mody. I work at The Salvation Army (Northshore Ministry) as a Kettle Coordinator.

As you may know, the Christmas Kettle Campaign is our largest fundraising drive of the year. With more than 2,000 kettle locations across Canada, the kettle not only raises critical funds but also boosts the Army's visibility and promotes awareness about the causes we support.

To continue to make the campaign a success, we rely heavily on kind-hearted and compassionate volunteers who would be willing to give a few hours of their day to be a:

- Kettle Host
- Driver/Supervisor

Should you come across any of your members who'd be interested in participating, please have them reach out to me or they could walk up to our office to have a quick chat too. We would very much appreciate your help in sending volunteers our way towards this mighty cause. We are of course very open to hearing your suggestions and receiving any leads from you as well.

The Salvation Army's Christmas Kettle campaign will be up and running from the 14th of November until the 23rd of December from Mon-Sat (10-6 p.m.) at multiple locations around the North Shore.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Thank you in advance, for your support and cooperation.

A popular community festival is returning to Richmond this summer. On August 14th, from 10am-3pm, the Sharing Farm is hosting the 12th Annual Richmond Garlic Fest in the award-winning Terra Nova Rural Park!

Highlights for festival-goers include live birds-of-prey flying demonstrations, a celebrated children's area, an expanded farmers market, food trucks with garlic-enhanced dishes, and live entertainment.

Admission to the festival is by donation and is suitable for all ages. Limited parking is available. A bike valet service will be available in a securely guarded area near the festival entrance, so consider cycling or taking transit to this event. All proceeds from the festival go to supporting the Sharing Farm in its mission to provide fresh, healthy, sustainably grown produce to community members facing food insecurity.

For women who have been displaced from their homes and estranged from their families, special occasions can be particularly challenging. Often, women report feeling disconnected from society, invisible and alone.  A Shoebox gift is a powerful reminder for a woman that she has not been forgotten and that she remains a valued and respected member of her community.

​For those giving gifts, The Shoebox Project is a tangible and creative opportunity to give back directly to someone in your very own community. It’s a small, simple gesture of kindness that has an immediate, positive impact on the woman who receives it.

- A. To advance the public’s appreciation of the visual and performing arts by producing art exhibitions, presentations, and performance arts events, and by proving a forum for qualified artists to exhibit, present, or perform their artistic works through participation in such events.

- B. To advance education and increase the public’s understanding and appreciation of the visual and performing arts by providing opportunities for workshops and seminars in the arts, as well as presentations to the community.

- C. To do all such other things as are incidental or conducive to the attainment of the purposes of the Society.

The Upside Project’s primary purpose is to spread positivity among communities and empower people of all ages to extend their appreciation and love for others. We aim to elevate people’s spirits and strengthen our community with a collection of student work including, but not limited to: poetry, short stories, artwork, and spoken word performances.
