In a misty, wet Dec 22 afternoon, just days before the 2013 Christmas, reindeers and elves of Lotus Light Charity Society delivered a huge sleigh full of Christmas presents brought in by President of Lotus Light Charity Society Vancouver, Vajra Master Lian Tzi, and Reverends Lian Wen and Lian Zhi to Atira’s new women’s shelter. Presents varies from all new items like duvet pillows with cases, nail manicure sets, thermos stainless mugs, assorted bracelets and earrings, snacks, gloves, hats, scarves, thermal socks, and many more surprises! Janice, CEO of Atira, and her clients carried big smiles when the big group arrived at 2pm.
City Councillor Kerry Jang & his daughter Rachel joined LLCS President, Reverends and volunteers in the downtown eastside building that was newly renovated by City of Vancouver’s funding for giving shelter protection for physically abused women in that area. These unfortunate ladies were harassed by mostly drug dealers like having their eyebrows or their hair shaved off. Cruelty indeed but now lives in a safe environment protected by Atira staff and City of Vancouver.
