VCC Brings Christmas in January to the DTES Community
The holiday season may be over, but on Saturday, January 20, Vancouver Community College (VCC) and The Salvation Army Vancouver Harbour Light will be giving a gift to their neighbours in the Downtown Eastside – a holiday-themed lunch with all the fixings.
As we mark the 20th anniversary of Christmas in January, dozens of volunteers from VCC's culinary programs, Harbour Light staff, and the community will prepare and serve over 60 turkeys, hundreds of pounds of vegetables, and gallons of coffee. Over 1,000 people from the community will enjoy a warm, nutritious post-holiday meal served at The Salvation Army Vancouver Harbour Light, located at 119 East Cordova Street.
