Downtown Chilliwack Health & Wellness Fair clothing drive drop off

We need your clothing donations!

UFV will once again be presenting the Downtown Chilliwack Health and Wellness Fair on Mon, Nov 19, from 1 to 4 pm.

This year the event will be held at the Vineyard Community Centre (45892 Wellington Ave, Chilliwack BC). The event will gather members of the Chilliwack community for an opportunity learn about health and wellness resources.

This event is part of an initiative to connect UFV students from across various disciplines with members of the community in support of their health needs and will support students in developing their community outreach skills. Students from nursing, library and information technology, kinesiology, and dental, along with participating community partners, will offer visitors health and wellness information and resources.

The Chilliwack community is populated with a diverse range of residents, some of whom require community support that includes basic health and clothing items. We are seeking gently used clothing items for a clothing drive, preferably items that will help struggling families through the fall and winter months.

Items can be dropped off in the blue bins outside the Faculty of Health Sciences reception area on the 2nd floor of CEP Building A.

Thank-you for supporting this event.
