Our family programs create a huge impact in the families they serve. 🩵 We create community and celebrate diversity and inclusion in each of our drop-in programs.

✨ Human Rights Day & International Migrants Day✨ Every voice matters. Every story counts. Every person belongs. Today, we reflect on the belief that everyone deserves dignity, respect, and the freedom to thrive. At Frog Hollow, these values live through the people who shape our community. especially our volunteers. 💚🐸✨ This video marks the final story in our International Volunteer Day series, where we’ve been celebrating the volunteers who bring their culture, creativity, and heart to Frog Hollow. And today, we are closing the series with: Anali’s story, beautifully captured by the International Organization for Migration (IOM). Anali first joined us as a volunteer, sharing her passion for storytelling and design. As our Communications Coordinator, she is helping us amplify community voices and create spaces where everyone feels seen and valued. We are grateful to @unmigration for highlighting her journey and the power of community connection through migration stories. 🌍 On this Human Rights Day, we honour the everyday acts of inclusion, support, and opportunity that make human rights real in our neighbourhood. To all our volunteers: thank you for everything you bring. You make Frog Hollow a place of belonging and possibility. 💚🐸 #HumanRightsDay #InternationalVolunteerDay #International Migrants Day #FrogHollowNH #VolunteerJourney #IOM #InternationalOrganizationForMigration #CommunityStories #HumanRights #VancouverCommunity #EveryoneBelongs
