Thank you to everyone who celebrated with us on April 13, 2024, at our “Live from Vancouver … it’s Saturday Night!” Share Gala, presented by US Bank and supported by Davidson & Associates Insurance Agency.
It was an evening full of classic SNL-themed entertainment, while underscoring the serious nature of the vital work our staff, volunteers and board members undertake each day to help people who are experiencing homelessness or food insecurity.
At the Gala, we honored all our sponsors in this SNL-inspired video, check it out!
