LLCS Distributes Hampers at Britannia Community Centre Parking Lot

On June 11, 2020, the Lotus Light Charity Society (LLCS) worked with volunteers from the Chinatown Community Policing Centre, Grandview Woodlands Community Policing Centre, and the Strathcona Community Policing Centre to distribute 1100 hampers from the parking lots of the Britannia Community Center. 600 hampers were given to families and individuals on-site and 450 hampers were distributed offsite; 250 of the offsite hampers were given to residents living on the Musqueam Aboriginal Reserve. 

Since late April, the LLCS has distributed 40,000 lbs of fresh produce and vegetables, canned goods, energy bars, pasta, and other non-perishable items to low-income families and vulnerable groups across metro-Vancouver. These items were generously donated from Superstore on Grandview Highway and Vancouver’s Produce Row Wholesalers: Discovery Organics, Fresh Point, Fresh Direct, Produce Terminal, and Van-Whole Produce.

Through this program, the Charity has distributed enough food for 18,400 meals from the parking lots of the two distribution sites: Britannia Community Center and the Pink Pearl Restaurant. 

The LLCS is proud to be serving those who need our help and will continue to extend its services and programs to those in need. The LLCS thanks its volunteers, corporate and individual sponsors, and partner community service organizations for all their generosity and support in helping our programs run successfully.
