Clyde Wright of AHA MEDIA speaks of a Wish List for Christmas Holiday Season 2009 in Vancouver Downtown Eastside (DTES)
Many Vancouver Downtown Eastside residents face great challenges including health problems, homelessness, access to good food/water/ warm clothing during the Holiday Season
Since the weather is getting very cold , members of AHA MEDIA as well as LifeSkills Centre in Vancouver Downtown Eastside would dearly appreciate some donations of food items, warm clothes, toiletries
AHA MEDIA would love to continue to build their community capacity to do mobile media reporting in Vancover and Downtown Eastside and would really love some donated electronic gear! 🙂
