Since 2008 Dundarave Festival of Lights Society has been raising awareness and action toward solving homelessness on our North Shore. Lookout Housing & Health runs the North Shore Shelter. Funds raised through the Forest of Miracles go directly to the Lookout Foundation which matches donations up to $50,000. These funds stay on the North Shore providing solutions for our most vulnerable.

The Forest of Miracles:
Ending Homelessness Beautifully
The ultimate Canadian Christmas leaves no one out in the cold. In the true spirit of the season, the Festival's "Forest of Miracles" calls out the better angels in all of us. For the very first time, the Forest of Miracles this season has expanded to cover the West Vancouver waterfront, from our very first site at Dundarave Beach eastward to Millennium Park and the Grosvenor Ambleside Galleria. Sponsored and decorated by families, community groups and businesses, the Festival's Christmas trees on beautiful Dundarave Beach have raised over a third of a million dollars since 2008 for the Lookout Society's North Shore Shelter. West Vancouver's firefighters deserve special mention for their heroic effort in planting this forest and supporting the Shelter. The Lookout Housing + Health Society has used this money to support essential services for the homeless, doubling the transitional services it provides to the most vulnerable members of our community.
Dig deep. Donations to Lookout through the Forest of Miracles, up to $50,000, will be matched by the Lookout Foundation. Lookout will use the proceeds to support housing for members of our community exiting homelessness.
