Do you know a person, who goes out of their way to brighten the lives of those around them? How about someone who volunteers their time to help others, often without recognition? The Surrey Hospice Society wants to know about these “every day heroes” who make our community a better place to live. Our Every Day Hero campaign is meant to showcase inspirational individuals who help others and their community in many small but meaningful ways. A Community Hero could be your neighbor, your colleague, your friend or someone that you see is making a positive impact. A Hero demonstrates how a person with passion and determination can use his or her life to make a difference.

​

Examples include, but are not limited to:

• first responders, health & mental care workers, teachers, students, instructors, coaches, spiritual leaders, transportation providers, caretakers, educators, PAC, volunteers, your neighbors, your family ..etc.

• keeping the community and environment clean, picking up trash, planting, recycling, cleaning graffiti

• helping citizens, lending a hand at hospices, food banks, clothing drives and animal shelters

• participating in fundraisers, volunteering and organizing

• donating food and necessities to the less fortunate

• advocating for great causes in our community, like immigration rights, domestic violence survivors, youth services, environmental agendas, and social justice.

• participating in senior programs, or children activities through schools or sport organizations

• a care provider or providing respite to care providers 

• Shovelling a neighbours walk way or drive way;

• Ride sharing or offering acquaintances transportation that don't have their own transportation
