Surrey is thrilled to announce a formal fundraising event coming to Vancouver.
Kobus Möller, renowned artist for his works depicting African wildlife
and landscapes, is having an exhibition of his works at a downtown Yaletown
gallery this September. Sponsored by BMW Canada Group, Mr. Möller
has generously selected SAS Surrey as his Canadian charity of choice for
an auction of one of his works at a special event at 7:30pm on September
11th as the highlight of his showing.
SAS Surrey will share the proceeds of the auction of one of Mr. Möller's
works with a charity of his choice in his home country. Special thanks

of this event. Contact SAS Surrey for more information.

Community Mobilization Program Grant
SAS Surrey is thrilled to announce that we have been awarded a grant from the National Crime Prevention Centre's Community Mobilization Program to develop and deliver a pilot program to assist both the victims and the partners of the victims of sexual exploitation to recognize, understand, and learn skills to deal with the issues of substance abuse, violence, anger, and victimization that have affected their own lives. This grant will allow SAS Surrey to further assist young women in our community by not only offering help to them, but to the other people sharing their lives in order to strengthen their relationships and make better choices together.
Information about registration and eligibility will be posted on the ASK Learning Centre page as soon as they are available. Program is set to start September 8th, and seating is limited to 16 participants. Couples are encouraged to register, but single people are also welcome to learn new skills for themselves and their relationships. Call Linda at 604-576-1141 for more information and how to register.
