Learn More About Us
Established in 2006 by a group of compassionate friends, the British Columbia Hospitality Foundation (BCHF) began with a mission to assist a friend in need. Since then, it has grown to aid over 300 hospitality workers facing financial crises due to health conditions.
BCHF supports individuals across diverse roles in BC's hospitality and tourism sectors, providing vital assistance for essentials like rent, food, and medicine. The Foundation relies on the generosity of community leaders, volunteers, and businesses to sustain its operations, organizing events and initiatives to meet funding requirements—contributions, whether large or small, significantly impact individuals' recovery and return to their professions. Consider how you can support BCHF's noble mission through various means, knowing that every form of assistance positively impacts lives.
