Transit Hospitality Sites

 

More Than Gold Hospitality is offering hot and cold refreshment services to locals and tourists across the GVA during the Olympics. Several 1000  volunteers are being mobilized to make this happen. Some of these refreshments will be served out of Salvation Army mobile canteens. Most are served from refreshment backpacks carried by volunteers, with the hot coffee and cocoa being made in nearby church kitchens. It's a huge undertaking and an amazing opportunity to extend radical hospitality to thousands.
Here's a list of our service sites:

 

  • SFU VANOC Departure Hub
  • BCIT VANOC Departure Hub
