Fifteen year ago, in 2008, we helped our first beneficiary, Michael Willingham, he needed a machine enabling him to breathe on his own at night after a debilitating stroke. The machine was not covered by his medical plan. Since then, we have awarded $1,128,956.

This year alone, since January, $31,600 have been awarded to three beneficiaries: one hotel worker family in Osoyoos, one tourism worker in Victoria, one pub server in Vancouver and one restaurant assistant manager in Vancouver. The funds awarded have significantly helped to support them up to the summer. Read bios HERE.

These funds are available thanks to individual and corporate donations. If you would consider becoming a beneficiary sponsor, please contact Alana Dickson at alana@bchospitalityfoundation.com or consider donating to the Foundation.

Thank you for your support of our charity.

Throughout March, make a new monthly gift of $20 or more through CanadaHelps, and CanadaHelps will make a one-time extra $20 donation to us!*

Here's how you can get involved:

Step 1: Go to our Donation Page or our Monthly Donor Page

Step 2: Schedule a monthly gift of $20 or more.

Step 3: Confirm your gift.

That's it!

For each eligible monthly donation, CanadaHelps will be adding a one-time $20 donation to supercharge your gift.*

We would like to extend a BIG THANK YOU to our consistent workplace giving partners. Over the years, employees have supported the BCHF by setting aside monthly donations collected by their employer.

We are also proud to confirm that we are a Registered Charity with BENEVITY and YOURCAUSE so if your employer is currently using these platforms to support employee giving, you can now search for British Columbia Hospitality Foundation and make contributions through their program.
