Change can only happen when people are empowered to improve their lives and their community. By providing a voice, resources and opportunities to people who need support, Burnaby Community Services is helping families and seniors break the cycles of poverty and isolation.
Founded in 1971, Burnaby Community Services is a charitable society. Originally founded as an information and referral service, the agency has grown considerably over the years and has taken in new programs in response to emerging local needs.
Over the years, we have developed a variety of services to assist families with low income and seniors experiencing isolation. Last year Burnaby Community Services provided 110,604 service moments.
The Coldest Night of the Year Burnaby will raise funds to provide a voice, resources and opportunities for those most in need.
Burnaby is a dynamic vibrant community with a diverse population including people who have no place to call home. Others are at high risk of homelessness given the cost of housing & the rate of redevelopment. The Society To End Homelessness In Burnaby provides leadership in collaborative planning for our community. The Society provides food, clothing, access to services in a supportive environment, establishing respectful & caring relationships with people on the street. This is the first step in helping people transition from a life of chaos to stability & homes. We rely on in-kind & cash donations & fundraise to cover basic service costs for our Outreach Resource Centre- food, transit & other direct services. We fundraise to maintain our volunteer coordinator to support volunteers who carry out the important work of the Society & assist in our collaborate efforts to end homelessness in Burnaby, helping people survive & to establish access to the services & housing that people need.
