Help Mariam raise money

For participating in 2019 Scotiabank Vancouver Half-Marathon & 5k

My Story…

I volunteered at PIRS in the early 90's and I loved the sense of community & belonging I saw. I have had the privilege of working with many PIRS graduates who became leaders in their communities. It's my goal to raise $500.

Description

Help Us Invest In Diversity

Canada continues to be home of diverse cultures. Vancouver is home to 913,300 immigrants, 40.0% of Vancouver's total population (Statistics Canada, July 25, 2018). At Pacific Immigrant Resources Society (PIRS), our mission is to empower immigrant and refugee women to fully participate in Canadian life through neighborhood-based programs. We served 1,263 participants in 2018 through 20 different programs. This year, we have been able to offer free Language classes to immigrant and refugee women. Our future wish is for all PIRS programs to be free of charge. 

Help us invest in diversity--We appreciate everyone’s support!
