V.I.A. needs your help to help sick kids

BC Children's Hospital Miracle Weekend (June 1 and 2) is a celebration of hope, courage and remarkable people - or Superheroes - who are making a difference for BC Children's Hospital. The two kids pictured below (Arlo and Sadie) are our Superheroes.

BC Children's Hospital Miracle Weekend (June 1 and 2) is a celebration of hope, courage and remarkable people - or Superheroes - who are making a difference for BC Children's Hospital.

The two kids pictured below (Arlo and Sadie) are our Superheroes. They belong to two different families that contribute to V.I.A. (the Kronbauers and the Overgaauws) and they're both regular fixtures on our web site and in our magazine. In their few short years on this earth they've both been in to BC Children's Hospital multiple times for relatively minor procedures, as well as ER visits. Both families have had nothing but fabulous experiences at BC Children's and they count themselves lucky that the kids are healthy and haven't had to undergo major treatment that so many with serious illnesses do.

We at Vancouver Is Awesome have joined forces with the Miracle Makers to raise money to provide the best possible care to children across the province. Please join Arlo, Sadie and the rest of us in making a difference. Visit miraclemaker.ca/vancouverisawesome for our team page, to learn more, and to make a donation to help the kids. And look for us on TV on Miracle Weekend when we'll be presenting BC Children's Hospital with the money we've raised!
