This is our campaign, we can all get involved.

The concept of Gratitude Week began almost two years with Ron Josephson, the Founder of Gratitude Week, bringing together a group of ordinary Vancouverites who wanted to make a tangible difference in the fight against homelessness. Today, Gratitude Week has grown exponentially into a powerful grass-roots citizens’ movement. We do not have all the answers, but we do have a plan. We are adopting a new approach: bringing a new perspective: a new way to help in the fight against homelessness.

This is our first year. We intend to engage the people of Vancouver directly in the fight against homelessness. As part of that fight, we are working to raise funds to provide safe, clean, affordable housing for people who do not have it. Not at some indefinite time in the future, but now. By harnessing the energy, creativity and collective will of the citizens of Vancouver, we can begin to End Homelessness Now.
