Help Sondra raise money

Next Sunday, September 24 I will be running the EastSide10k in support of the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre (DEWC)!

DEWC is one of the busiest women’s centres in the country and offers 2 drop-in centres and 3 emergency night shelters for women and gender diverse people living in extreme poverty,providing safe space, basic needs, and support services to many of the city’s most marginalized groups.

Over 1000 women, children and gender diverse people are hosted daily, with demands exponentially increasing due to the ongoing housing and opioid crises.

DEWC serves as a crucial sanctuary and refuge, connects those who access our services to a continuum of care, and enables empowerment and long-term changes.

With every pledge of just $5 you are providing those accessing our sites with a hot nutritious meal, safe and clean shower; a place of safety from the street; and specialized services such as Advocacy,Housing Outreach, Victim Services, Chinese Senior Outreach andCultural Programming.
