What moves you? Join us on Saturday, October 1, 2022 for a family-friendly bike + walk fundraiser to support the youth of East Vancouver. You are giving youth a place of refuge, growth and connection.
Thank you for supporting the Inner Hope community!!
THANK YOU FOR CHOOSING TO SUPPORT THE YOUTH OF EAST VANCOUVER.
Inner Hope is built on mutually transformative long-term relationships. Our community is diverse and includes many single parent families. Around 85% of our community members are First Nations or Métis. We support our community's vision to shatter multi-generational cycles of trauma which have led to addiction, abuse and poverty.
“The Home,” launched in 2014, provides family-style housing for young people (and sometimes their children) from East Vancouver. When Inner Hope Youth Ministries opened "The Home," our youth and parents chose the location and helped draft the job description for our House Parents.
The Home is a community space where multi-generational family gatherings are held, where family and friends can visit and stay the night and gather to play games, watch sporting events and eat delicious homemade meals. It is also a place of growth. It is designed for youth who want support to further their education, gain employment and build life skills. House Parents live in The Home modeling healthy living and helping the four youth who live there achieve their goals.
Start location is at First Christian Reformed Church of Vancouver.
EVERY GIFT OF $100 OR MORE IS CURRENTLY BEING MATCHED (UP TO $10,000)!
Let's walk around Trout Lake!! In this park, we gather to celebrate life events (like grad) and to honour our community - joining pow wows and the National Day of Truth and Reconciliation.
THERE AND BACK ROUTE. Snack stop at Morton Park just past the Inukshuk. Inukshuks are a symbol from the Inuit people in northern Canada. This ancient symbol represents hospitality and friendship.
THERE AND BACK ROUTE going past the East Van Cross (a symbol of identity and hope for our community), VCC (where many of our youth go for upgrading) and turns around at snack stop near Science World!
