Our Mission

We aim to pitch in and do our part to ensure needs are met in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside as much as we could. We can’t all do everything, but to different extents, we all can have a hand in helping the vulnerable. Our mission is to advocate for and provide the residents of DTES with necessities that make an actual difference in their lives.

How You Can Help

Not only are we always looking for new and/or gently used clothing, hygiene and sanitizing products, non-perishable food items, and other forms of donations, but we are also always looking for new volunteers that can help us in advancing our mission.

To arrange for the donation of non-monetary items, as well as to get involved as a volunteer, please email us at:
