HOPE IN THE CITY BREAKFAST When we share, we should share loud and clear and without shame.

Michael Landsberg

ABOUT THE EVENT

SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER Our guest speaker this year is Michael Landsberg. You may recognize him from his days anchoring TSN Sportsnet or his very popular TV show Off the Record.

Mr. Landsberg suffers from generalized anxiety disorder and depression, a condition that affects over 3 million Canadians every year.

In British Columbia, there is a strong relationship between mental illness and poverty. And while the cause and effect relationship is complicated, the end result is not…people suffer.

Engaging and thoughtful, Mr. Landsberg will share his personal story, shine a spotlight on a condition that impacts people from all walks of life, and discuss the impact The Salvation Army is having in B.C. Join us for this very special occasion … you’re sure to walk away inspired. #sicknotweak

Our Hope in the City Breakfast has become a special Christmas tradition. We bring Vancouver’s business community together to ring in the holiday season, raise funds and awareness, and celebrate those who help us make an impact on the lives of so many British Columbians.

Over 1200 individuals gather on this special day to show their support and provide us with the financial assistance we need to deliver our mission. Through their care and support, we are better-equipped to create significant and long-lasting improvements in local communities, while providing essential services for those less fortunate.

THE SALVATION ARMY

The Salvation Army gives hope and support to vulnerable people today and every day in 400 communities across Canada and more than 120 countries around the world. We offer practical assistance for children and families, often tending to the basic necessities of life, providing shelter for homeless people and rehabilitation for people who suffer from addiction.

The most important thing that I can teach my children is that everybody needs some help sometimes.

to overcome. I had to acknowledge that I had severe, prolonged disabilities and they were not getting better.” She applied for a disability pension and visited The Salvation Army, where she found the support she needed.

Asking for help was one of the hardest things Kelly had to do, but when the young mother of two was down to her last $20 and Christmas was coming, she had no choice but to reach out. “It was the most humbling experience of my life, because I had never needed to ask for anything.”

A collision with a drunk driver left her with a number of long-term disabilities. The damage — both physical and emotional — put a lot of stress on her young family and within two years, she and her husband had separated. Without his modest income, she struggled to provide for her children.

Just before the holidays, Kelly acknowledged she needed help. “You have a lot of pride that you have

Our Christmas hamper program was there for Kelly and her family. She was given a turkey dinner, treats for her kids, fruits and vegetables, “everything you need.” She was also able to shop through the charity’s toy collection and get brand new gifts for her children.

The experience inspired her so much that now she gives back. Kelly is a dedicated volunteer with our organization and continues to share her story in hopes of encouraging others like her to ask for help.

For Kelly, reaching out was life-changing and because of the support we receive from our donors and volunteers, we were able to be there for her and her family.

Christmas Assistance The Salvation Army offers help to families that find themselves struggling during this festive season as well as throughout the year. Christmas Hampers and holiday meals are available to assist individuals and families in need. New donated toys also become presents under the Christmas tree!

Community & Family Services Salvation Army locations across BC provide nutritious free meals for men, women and children across BC. Community feeding is offered through our facilities and street outreach programs. Clients include elderly, immigrants, struggling working families, underemployed, addicted, mentally ill, and/or physically disabled. These meals often provide an opportunity for staff to help clients access other social services offered through the community.

Rehabilitation Services Our goal is to provide a clean, safe, non-judgemental environment to those who are battling addiction. Our detox centres address physical, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs. Our programs are run by multidisciplinary teams that provide health care workers, nurses, case managers and administrative staff; as well as, recovery resources, housing and funding referrals. Clients are supported 24/7 by health care workers, with weekday nursing services.

Emergency Disaster Services Emergency Disaster Services has 14 Community Response Unit locations across BC. These locations have mobile units that are equipped to provide hot meals and beverages to disaster victims and emergency workers. Over a 1000 meals can be prepared and served daily through our mobile kitchen units.
