Thank you @rbc Katie Yu for hosting a beautiful chefs’ dinner at @myvcc JJ’s Restaurant with President Ajay Patel and Chef @hamidsalimian . Canada faces a growing shortage of skilled tradespeople, including culinary talent, making VCC’s top-ranked Culinary Arts and Asian Culinary Arts programs more important than ever. By training the next generation of chefs, VCC is helping sustain restaurants, hotels, and institutions across the country while preserving important culinary traditions. This is especially critical in Vancouver’s Cantonese restaurant community, where many Hong Kong-trained chefs are nearing retirement, creating an urgent need for highly trained new talent to carry these traditions forward.
Congratulations Andrea, Shannon and team! Final tally raised at 10th @causewecarefoundation luncheon is a record smashing $1.5 million for the Single Mothers Support Fund. Beyond grateful for this outpouring of support, helping ensure single mothers have access to the stability, resources, and opportunities they need not just to get by, but to move forward. Well done, all! 👏👏👏🙏❤️

Money, money, money! @palsautismsociety #abbacadabra themed gala saw 500+ guests raised a record $830,000 and counting. Two decades ago a group of mothers came together with a dream… to create a space for their children on the autism spectrum to have a space where they can learn and thrive. 20 years later, PALS Autism Society is a dedicated elementary and secondary school in BC for children and adolescents with autism. Additionally they have created PASS, an innovative daily program and independent housing for autistic adults. #letsdance #DancingQueen Happy Mothers Day 👏👏👏❤️🪩🕺
