WHAT WE DO

Trusted Charity for Children with Disabilities

Helping make lives better for over 75 years.

Easter Seals BC/Yukon, founded by the East Vancouver Lions Club in 1947, is a trusted and established charity leader. Creating opportunities and tools to help children and adults with disabilities address life’s challenges while building self-esteem, self-confidence and independence. And providing the comforts of home for those traveling to Vancouver for medical appointments and treatments.

Our work wouldn’t be possible without the support of Lions Clubs, generous donors, sponsors, partners and volunteers who work with us to help change lives for the better.
