BOMA BC Sponsors Downtown Eastside Women's Centre + 2024 Herstory

Since 1978, the Downtown Eastside Women’s Centre (DEWC) in Vancouver has been a sanctuary for self-identifying women and children. With a commitment to providing meals, clothing, personal necessities, and essential services, the Centre serves over 700 individuals daily. Thanks to the generosity of BOMA BC members at our industry events last year, we were able to contribute a $10,000 donation to DEWC. We are profoundly grateful for the opportunity to support such a crucial community asset, and we extend our heartfelt appreciation to all who made this donation possible.

On International Women's Day, BOMA BC Chair, Leanne Reynolds, had the privilege of attending DEWC's annual Herstory event. Herstory serves as a fundraiser and a celebration of resilience, strength, and courage, spotlighting the accomplishments and talents of women from diverse backgrounds. This event stands as a powerful testament to the impact organizations like DEWC have on our community and underscores the significance of collaborative efforts in fostering positive change. We are thankful to DEWC for hosting this remarkable event and graciously extending an invitation for BOMA to participate.
