Vancouver Island Run benefits Veterans House Victoria
On September 7, 2024, more than 200 riders from all over Vancouver Island rode from Chemanius to Victoria in support of Veterans experiencing homelessness.
Run organizer, Thea Squire, along with several riders, presented Dave Sinclair and Terri Orser a generous donation of $3,000. Partial proceeds will also go to support VETS Canada, another organization supporting Veterans. Thank you to everyone who took part in the Vancouver Island Run for Homeless Vets!
Veterans House Victoria provides transitional housing for up to 8 Veterans at a time. At this time, this program receives no government funding and relies on the support of Legion Branches and community groups. Thank you!
