We are grateful to accept gently used and new donations of clothing, towels, sheets, and other supplies. Shower supplies that were very recently opened and sampled once or twice are also accepted. Please note that for hygenic reasons make-up, underwear, and personal items should be new only.
We will be accepting donations at the upcoming Vancouver Area Council BBQ on July 29th, and at the PSAC Vancouver office until August 11th.
If you would like to make a donation but are unable to attend the BBQ or the PSAC office, please contact us at leaserronunion@gmail.com to make arrangements for pick up.
Thank you in advance for your generous donations.
In Solidarity,
Vancouver Regional Women’s Committee
