Shannon suffered a major spinal cord injury and found help amongst her own
Shannon was a server at The Bourbon in Vancouver’s Gastown, when she became injured while snowboarding in Whistler, breaking her spine. Her employer decided to host a pub crawl with the hopes of raising $2000. When the BCHF agreed to match donations raised up to $7500, a groundswell of public and industry support erupted, leading to Shannon ultimately receiving $24,440.00 from the BCHF, the BC Paraplegic Foundation, The Bourbon’s “Shanbone Fun-Raiser” pub crawl, and Fantasy Food 2000. Shannon still faces a long road to recovery, but her spirit and determination continue to inspire us all.
