So many people in our community are doing things that are making a difference during these difficult times. Through Community Connection we are sharing these on a daily basis. As the sponsor of the Community Connection Feature, Fresh St. Market is donating to several COVID-19 Response Funds, including Vancouver General Hospital (VGH) Foundation and St Paul's Foundation.
VGH Foundation: This fund is for the whole community to come together to directly contribute and support our frontline. It is designed to be flexible and nimble to allow VGH to rapidly deploy funding as needed to support the thousands of health care workers across our facilities and community.

St. Paul’s Foundation: This fund will support areas across Providence Health Care with things like respirators and other personal protective equipment, diagnostic tools and resources in our lab environments, and life-saving research. It will also provide support for unforeseeable needs in the future, including support for some of our most vulnerable populations.
