The mission of Gratitude Week is to complement the existing efforts of government and agencies to end homelessness by involving the citizens of Vancouver and also by raising funds from ordinary citizens. The money raised will go directly towards creating safe, affordable housing for 120 people. These dollars will have an impact far beyond their monetary value. These dollars represent the will of the people of Vancouver to end homelessness now. (hint: read on and you'll see that the request is only for $1)
This is a critical moment and this action requires your support
