Help Ana raise money

For participating in 2022 Vancouver Half Marathon

My Story…

Here is our tiny but determined team after walking in last year's Vancouver Half Marathon, and enjoying some well deserved ice cream! Despite challenges that included a heat-induced nosebleed, more than a few blisters, and not-quite-heatdome-hot-but-still-really-hot weather, we managed to raise money to help support some of the vulnerable in our community. For the second year in a row, I am going to walk a half-marathon for the WISH Drop-In Centre Society in the Vancouver Half Marathon Charity Challenge

For almost 40 years, WISH has been a refuge and an essential point of contact for street-based sex workers who have been made vulnerable due to poverty, homelessness, trauma, violence, stigma, and a lack of access to supports and opportunities. WISH is the largest organization in Canada supporting these vulnerable women, and the only drop-in centre and shelter in BC supporting sex workers 365 nights a year. If you are interested in donating, please do so through the link here – every bit counts – and I truly appreciate the support! #charitychallenge #walkforWISH
