The Mount Pleasant Community Policing Centre (MPCPC) is a volunteer-driven non-profit governed by a community-based board. The MPCPC promotes crime prevention and safety in partnership with residents, community agencies and the Vancouver Police Department. Additionally, by acting as a liaison between the Vancouver Police Department and community agencies the MPCPC works to create a safe and inclusive neighborhood while supporting the community's most vulnerable.

Building on that, the MPCPC operates a warm and welcoming storefront to connect residents with those CPC programs and other community-based services.

The Canadian Centre for Men and Families is a mental health and social service hub delivering programs and services for boys, men, fathers and their families. Our vision focuses on three critical areas:
1. Reduce suicide among men at high-risk through intervention programs that confront the barriers that men face.
2. Empower fathers undergoing separation and divorce through legal clinics and fathering groups that strengthen the father-child relationship, while working to promote positive social attitudes toward fatherhood
3. Support men who are experiencing domestic abuse and work with other agencies to improve services for boys and men.
In addition to delivering front-line programs and services to families in crisis, we undertake evidence-based research, host public education and awareness activities, and work to improve public policies to better support all Canadians.

Second Harvest is the largest food rescue organization in Canada and a global thought leader in food recovery.
We work across the supply chain from farm to retail to capture surplus food before it ends up in the landfill which negatively impacts our environment.
Every year, we recover millions of pounds of nutritious, unsold food — focusing on protein, dairy and produce — which we rescue before it becomes waste. We redistribute it to a broad network of over 4,000 social service organizations. Supported by hundreds of corporations, foundations, and the community at large, we rescue and redistribute enough food to provide thousands of meals a day in Canada.
Since 1985 we have rescued and delivered more than 177 million pounds of food, preventing over 75 million pounds of greenhouse gas equivalents from entering our atmosphere.
We nurture life, soil, vegetables, flowers, new growers and connectedness in the Territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh and səlilwətaɬ / Nations
We grow food, flowers, berries and fruit using ecological growing methods on a 1 acre urban farm and distribute it to over 1000 people every growing season.
