Stories of Change
Mid-Main Community Health Centre
The process began with conversations, with Vancity Community Foundation staff, about how the Centre might begin to address its real estate challenge.
Catalyst Community Developments
No money changed hands. A contract was signed to acquire 31 new units of below market rental housing in the City of Richmond, BC. And all of the players received what they wanted in the ultimate win-win-win scenario for non-profit housing in this province.
Social Enterprise Fund
Sometimes what makes the biggest difference in a person’s life is the sense of confidence that comes from getting back to work and belonging in the community.
