19th Annual Tournament of Hope
This event is aimed at raising funds and awareness for the essential programs that include, but are not limited to, providing backpacks filled with school supplies for children and youth whose families would otherwise be unable to afford them, sending children to camp, and offering food hampers to support those at risk of poverty during the Christmas season.
Every year, we host a fun-filled golf fundraiser, the Tournament of Hope. This event is a great opporunity to get out on the course to golf for a great cause, and be treated to a wonderful dinner and auction afterward. It's also a great opportunity to promote and gain exposure for your business through sponsorship. All the money raised from the tournament goes directly to our community programs, including providing backpacks full of school supplies for youth and children, free daily community meals, Christmas food hampers, and sending local children to a week of summer camp in Gibsons, BC. All these programs are made possible through sponsorship and support of events like this one!
If you would like to become a sponsor for this event, or you'd like to sign up a team to golf, please contact: Jasmine.Sidhu@salvationarmy.ca

Salvation Army Partnership Boosts Wildfire Response in Remote Communities
Each summer, many regions across Canada face the growing threat of wildfires. While towns and cities may be well equipped to respond, isolated communities often face delays in accessing emergency services.
To address this need, The Salvation Army’ Emergency Disaster Services (EDS) in British Columbia has partnered with First Nations Emergency Services Society (FNESS) and GlobalMedic to help protect remote First Nation communities. Fire skid units are being delivered to areas with limited or no access to fire departments.
“Many First Nation communities don’t have fire services to support them in emergency situations. These fire skids will be helpful,” says Divisional Director of EDS, Ian Pollard. “They’re mobile. You can place them in the back of a four-wheel drive and they help provide emergency capability to respond to fires.”
“Many First Nation communities don’t have fire services to support them in emergency situations.”
GlobalMedic, a Canadian company, designed the skids to be compact and easily transported by a small group of people. The units operate off-grid, making them ideal for remote locations.
The skids were sold to The Salvation Army at cost, with no mark-up of any kind.
“The units provide a fairly large stream of water and can be refilled using a hose,” Ian explains. “They also have an adapter that allows water to be drawn directly from a river or lake.”
With FNESS helping identify the 30 First Nation communities most at risk of wildfire in British Columbia, EDS hopes to donate fire skids to all these locations.
So far, two skids have been delivered, with positive feedback from the communities.
“They’ve been impressed with how simple the skids are to use, and the strength of the water output,” Ian shares.
“It helps them protect and preserve their communities.”
The first batch of skids was delivered to two communities near Bella Coola, B.C., with more scheduled to be distributed throughout the year.
These mobile firefighting units are expected to significantly improve local emergency response.
“It gives members of these regions more autonomy. It helps them protect and preserve their communities,” Ian says.
