{UVic Poverty Law Club} Hope in Shadows Calendars for Sale next week!

Hi PLC,

Please stop by the table outside the lounge at lunchtime next week if you would like to be a Hope in Shadows calendar.    The calendar makes a great holiday gift.  They are selling at a discount rate for students for $15.

Hope in Shadows is a charitable organization that aims to create positive social change for people and communities impacted by poverty and marginalization. Our projects empower, educate, and provide employment training to low income people in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside and beyond.

The annual Hope in Shadows photography contest - coordinated by the Pivot Legal Society - which gives Downtown Eastside residents the opportunity to portray their community through their own eyes. A selection of the contest's best images is featured in the annual Hope in Shadows calendar which is sold on the streets of Vancouver by homeless and low-income vendors. Free training and support are provided to those interested in managing their own micro-business.

Thanks and please spread the word!
