My Story…
Once again, yours truly, who is the least likely to run any kind of race ever, is run/walking 5K to raise support for the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre (DEWC), where I work. The Centre runs a drop-in centre and an emergency shelter (now open 24-hours!) for women in the Downtown Eastside, one of the only women’s spaces in an area characterized by extreme poverty and marginalization. DEWC is a bustling community hub, shared living room, and sanctuary, accessed by hundreds of women daily.
I’m humbly asking for you to pitch what you’re able - $5, $20, $100! - to show support for the Centre, and for its vibrant, fierce, and tenacious community of women. These women have taught me worlds about kindness and resilience, honouring me with their stories and friendship. They are the reason why I do what I do, and why, despite the heartache of ongoing trauma, grief, and systemic violence, being part of the DEWC is a place of incredible care and surprising, belly-laugh joy.
