Hello Friends,
I hope you are doing well.
Exciting times here in the Lower Mainland! I sit on the board, as president, of the Aero Club of BC, which has been in operation since 1915. Our past members have played pivotal roles in building YVR, training pilots for WWII, participating in the creation of the Air Cadets, kickstarting the construction of Pitt Meadows Airport, and many more monumental achievements for all of us to enjoy.
One of the programs we operate is the COPA Discovery Aviation. This program offers children aged 8 to 18 the chance to take a free flight!
We created a video to show how we took 180 kids flying in one day!
Here are a couple of other charities we've found that are helping.

New Hope Community Services
Welcoming and Supporting Refugee Families in the Lower Mainland.
New Hope provides housing and support services for refugee families as they transition into life in Canada. We own and operate a 13-unit apartment building in Surrey, BC and partner with community agencies to help refugee families access resources they may need.
Through our dedicated staff and generous volunteers, we provide support services such as language training, educational assistance, employment opportunities, and more. Moreover, we create a supportive, welcoming community for newcomers to gain their independence and thrive.
We’ve seen the lives of our residents changed immensely and their hope renewed. It is our joy, commitment and passion to continue this mission.
Thank you from all the volunteers and families.
