Throughout May, 533 team members came together to push past their limits and move with purpose, achieving an inspiring 16,000+ hours of movement as part of the Workout to Conquer Caner! Every rep, step and stretch was powered by personal stories, resilience, and the unwavering fight to conquer cancer.   We celebrated movement and milestones together as team members crushed personal goals, stepped outside their comfort zones, and completed their first marathons! Being part of this challenge brought us together in proving that when we support one another we can accomplish anything. Our partnership with BC Cancer Foundation represents our commitment to supporting innovative research, access to patient care, and progress toward transforming cancer treatment.  Together, we are stronger than cancer.

Last week I had the immense honour of being awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal, presented by Dan Huang-Taylor, Executive Director of Food Banks BC. I was deeply humbled to be recognized by Food Banks BC and Food Banks Canada in the category of Community Service and Philanthropy. Over the past 20 years with First West Credit Union, I have been incredibly fortunate to have my career aspirations, educational pursuits, and personal growth supported and celebrated by First West. First West has generously provided me with the opportunity to make a meaningful difference in communities across BC. It is a privilege to support the many remarkable programs and partnerships that define First West’s community engagement. I am inspired by the dedication of Food Banks BC and its members. Their tireless efforts to increase access to healthy food and to innovate in support of client wellbeing is nothing short of extraordinary. As the need continues to grow, their commitment never wavers. I have not walked this path alone. The passion and generosity of First West team members across BC, our leadership, and our Board have been instrumental in supporting local food banks, our members, and our communities through challenging times. From the early days of Feed the Valley and The Full Cupboard, to our evolving understanding of food insecurity, we have seen how collective action can create lasting impact. I am deeply grateful for this honour - for the opportunities I have had, the experiences I have shared, and the partnerships that have shaped my journey. Thank you, Dan, thank you, First West and thank you to the hundreds of food bank team members and volunteers whose compassion and care strengthen our communities every day!
