Together We Can Make A Difference

Shine a Light Gala is a red-carpet event starting with a VIP reception followed by a gourmet menu, fine wine and entertainment with a sprinkle of community spirit. The gala hosted by ICONNBC Business Association head-quartered in Richmond, is to raise awareness that will have a lasting impact on both the autism and senior communities.

Founded in 2008, the Canucks Autism Network (CAN) has touched and supported many individuals in our community. In 2023, CAN made significant impacts on the lives of individuals with autism and their families, providing essential services and support that enhance their quality of life and promote inclusion.


Canucks Autism Network welcomes children, youth and young adults across the autism spectrum. Programs delivered across the Lower Mainland, in the Interior and on the Island:

  • Overnight Camp
  • Swimming
  • Outdoor Recreation
  • Family Events
  • Hockey
  • Gymnastics
  • Field Games
  • Multi-Sports
  • Skating
  • Fitness
  • Music
  • Rowing

The Atrium Legacy Foundation was created to address the growing demand for specialized programs and services for seniors. To ensure dignified aging for our seniors the health and well being will be significantly beneficial to our communities through a senior daycare centre.


The senior daycare centre will offer a comprehensive age-appropriate range of programs in exercise classes, knowledge classes, social engagement and recreational activities designed to promote physical health, mental stimulation, and social interaction. The carefully curated programs cater to the diverse interests and needs of our Senior community, ensuring a holistic approach to their well-being.
