Variety Show of Hearts Telethon 2024

Tune in to Global BC on Sunday, February 25, 2024 from 1:00pm to 5:30pm to support kids in our community.

This event gives you the opportunity to spread hope across BC, and be inspired by powerful stories of impact, celebrities standing up for Variety, and outstanding musical performances – all in support of the true heroes; the kids themselves. Their stories highlight the vital need for donors to step in and help us remove barriers that limit their hopes for the future and prevent them from fulfilling their unique potential.

Donations can be made online or over the phone by calling 310-KIDS.

This year’s television event will bring together a roster of celebrity and musical guests. The line-up includes special appearances by Adam Beach, Evan Goldberg, Joe Jonas, Barenaked Ladies, Eric McCormack, Natalie Portman, Seth Rogen, Martin Short, George Stroumboulopoulos, as well as exclusive musical performances by artists including Aysanabee, Tom Cochrane, The Reklaws, Walk Off the Earth, and more!

Workout for Women’s Day 2024

Add a Comment by Alexis

Workout for Women’s Day is back for its 6th year, presenting dozens of by-donation classes and sessions in support of great causes from March 2 to 8, 2024.

Workout for Women's Day in Vancouver

Workout for Women’s Day

Here’s how it works:

Organizers Shana Alexander, Andi Davis, and Danya Rogen want to raise awareness for organizations and causes that support all self-identifying girls and women, and gender expansive people, in the hopes of creating greater community connections now and in the future, and promote inclusion, diversity and equity in movement settings. For participants, they provide a space where all feel welcome and empowered to move in their own way.

“Moving your body is just good for everything,” says Rogen. “It’s good for your brain, it’s good for your body, it’s good for all round – there are no downfalls the way I see it. What I actually really love about this week is that there are so many ways to move and I hope that we can really attract those people who might be scared to do a kickboxing class, but a yin yoga class is something they feel is more accessible and right up their alley.” Rogen says a doctor she works with likes to say: “The best exercise that you do is the one that you do!“

Workout for Women’s Day  is a coming together of local movement studios and instructors around International Women’s Day to offer public and private (corporate) classes for charities that support girls, women, and other people who experience gender discrimination. This grassroots, volunteer driven campaign, created and run by the Stronger Together Vancouver Team, has raised more than $145,000 in 5 years since it began in 2019!
