Over 18,000 children and youth in B.C. are diagnosed with a Learning Disability. With few resources in the school system to support them they are being left behind. By definition children with learning challenges are of average or above average intelligence but blocks in one or more areas of the brain mean they have challenges understanding and using language and their ability to receive, process, recall or communicate information is affected. Learning challenges can lead to social anxiety, low self-esteem and many other challenges. Together we can help. LDAV offers remedial teaching that builds confidence by helping children understand their unique strengths and teaches them strategies and skills for overcoming their challenges. Armed with these tools children can advocate for themselves in school and access the education that will allow them to achieve their dreams. Every child has the right to learn and the power to achieve. Help us make this a reality today.

Noth Okanagan Hospice Society offers services to palliative clients and their loved ones. The Society was incorporated in October 1984. In 1999, residents of the North Okanagan recognized the need for an alternative to hospital admission, when providing care at home was no longer possible. The community realized that the hospital environment was neither appropriate nor cost-effective for palliative clients. Adding residential services to the continuum of care already offered by the Society would provide the home-like choice so desired by clients. After careful consideration, the Society’s Board of Directors decided to build a free-standing six bed Hospice House (expanded to a 12 bed facility in 2008). Fiscal responsibility and being responsive to the needs of the community make Hospice House an extraordinary success in the North Okanagan. The Society is recognized for delivering excellence in palliative care in the North Okanagan.
