Each year the Downtown Eastside Women's Centre hosts a Christmas Dinner for over 450 women and children in the neighbourhood. They also hold special breakfasts on Christmas and New Year's mornings.
The Centre depends on the generosity of the community to provide our members with these special holiday celebrations. This is a remarkable opportunity to share in the spirit of the season. Gifts will be given to women and their children at our drop-in centre and emergency shelter, and will be delivered to women who are in the hospital over Christmas.
They are also accepting cash donations and new unwrapped gifts for women and children.
