A huge thank you to our panelist speakers for such an insightful discussion on regional approaches to complex issues, and to everyone who attended our AGM and panel discussion.
We’re grateful for your support and excited for another year of growth and community impact!
Thank you to the Scrappy Jack Pass-Through Fund for the generous donation to the Greater Victoria Rent Bank. This donation through the @VicFoundation helps to ensure those who are not eligible for loans are able to receive grants to prevent homelessness.
The 2025 Greater Victoria Living Wage has been published: $27.40 per hour.
