Dear friends and family.
We are writing you all to let you know that we are all preparing for the 19th annual Women's Memorial March that will be held in Vancouver, February 14, 2010. Every year for 19 years we have walked in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver to honour the Missing and Murdered women on February 14. This is an opportunity for all the family members to gather and talk to other families who have suffered these tragic losses in their lives.
We would like to extend and invitation to all of you to attend this very important march.
As you all may know, the Olympic's will also be here and the eyes of the world will be on Vancouver. We would like to show our solidarity with as many family members as possible.
It has been brought to my attention that there are many family members who would like to attend and are presently in the process of fundraising for this important day. We are also working on trying to get billeting for at least a couple of days. We want to show the world that our beautifuil women are gone, but not forgotten.
If you have any suggestions or know anyone who wants to attend, please let us know ahead of time so we can help with the arrangements. We are a non profit organisation and may not be able to help financially, but, we also know that this event is important for the families to honour and walk for their loved ones. We will do whatever we can to make your stay in Vancouver comfortable.
At this time I would like to send you prayers for good health, safety and healing. We hope to see you there.
Much Respect
