Help Jenn raise money

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

My Story…

In a little over 2 weeks, I will be doing the Scotiabank run for WISH Drop-in Centre. WISH is a passion of mine and I volunteer as the Board Chair. WISH provides much needed programs and services to some of the most vulnerable and marginalized women in our community, street-based sex workers. Many of the women who are connected to WISH are homeless, or at risk of homelessness, struggle with mental health and/or substance abuse, and poverty. The programs and services they receive at WISH help them live healthier and more connected lives. We really appreciate your support

Description

WISH Drop-In Centre Society puts its mission, values, and core principles into action by providing services, supports and opportunities to women engaged in Vancouver’s street based sex industry. WISH offers a safe haven for sex-working women: a place to take a break, connect with colleagues and friends, get a bite to eat or access other, more specific kinds of support – in a safe, respectful, accepting environment. As a deeply respected member of the DTES community, WISH offers programs to serve immediate needs, while engaging in the ongoing advocacy required to shift societal prejudices that continue to put women at risk.
