My Story…

The Vozel-heim family is running the 5k race in support of the Pacific Immigrant Resources Society (PIRS). This is a great, community-based, non-profit serving immigrant and refugee women and their children with programs designed to help women progress and contribute in Canadian society (http://pirs.bc.ca/). Amy was on their board for several years--they do incredible work and would make good use of your support.

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! 

Thank you for your donation!
