Help us raise money

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

Our story…

Please join us in supporting the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre! Any donation amount is much appreciated! The Downtown Eastside (DTES) is well-known within Vancouver and across Canada for its disproportionate levels of poverty and extreme marginalization. It is home to many vulnerable but vital populations, and it is a place known for its creativity, community activism, and tenacity in the face of tremendous stigma. Please support the women and their children of this neighborhood. You will receive a tax receipt for donations of more than $10. To learn more about our participation in the Scotia Bank Charity Challenge, please see http://dewc.ca/scotiarun To learn more about the Women's Centre, please see http://dewc.ca/introduction Thanks very much! Sincerely, "The 5 KM-ers and Half-Marathoners for DEWC"
