We provide crime prevention education and personal safety awareness activities in downtown Vancouver, west of Burrard Street. What makes us special is YOU!

The Marpole Community Food Hub is open every Thursday to address the food insecurity in our community. We receive food donations from the Greater Vancouver Food Bank and The Salvation Army every Wednesday, which we bag up and distribute on Thursday mornings. Our immediate need is for volunteers on Wednesday morning to unload help sort the deliveries. We follow current Covid protocols with masking, hand-sanitizing and gloves. We request that our volunteers are up to date with their Covid Vaccinations as we work with vulnerable members of the public.
DASH strives to encourage all BC schools to be a healthy school community. A healthy school community constantly strengthens its capacity as a healthy setting in which students, staff, parents, and community members work collaboratively to build healthy, resilient and socially connected students that learn how to be healthy for life.
A healthy school is a place where students feel welcomed and connected to their broader school community. A healthy school community is a place where students have many opportunities both in the classroom, and in the school community to strengthen their physical, mental, social-emotional, and intellectual development.
The Looking Glass Foundation strives to support individuals struggling with eating disorders and disordered eating. We offer innovative and accessible programs and services that decrease isolation, instill hope, and sustain recovery for individuals on their road to recovery. As a Foundation, we are aware of the harsh realities of eating disorders, the stigma that exists around these mental illnesses, and the work that still needs to be done in addressing treatment access and gaps. All of our work is grounded in hope, compassion, accessibility and accountability. Every day, we hear and share inspiring stories of our friends, loved ones, colleagues, and community members who have recovered and are thriving. Knowing this, we continue the fight against eating disorders, while sharing the message that recovery is possible. We understand the journey and we are here to help.
Our Vision: A province where everyone who suffers from an eating disorder receives the services they need to support their recovery, and where the stigma of this mental illness is replaced with compassion and understanding.
Our Mission: Looking Glass Foundationâs programs and services decrease isolation, instill hope, and sustain recovery for individuals across British Columbia who are impacted by eating disorders.
