Our charity is proud to have ‘grown up’ in the communities we serve. In 1974, a small group of volunteers formed the Citizens’ Advisory Committee to help address social issues in Saanich Peninsula communities. There were a few people, offering a few programs. Over the years, our charity evolved, expanded, and changed its name a few times. Eventually, we became Beacon Community Association (better known to our partners, communities, and the people we serve as Beacon Community Services). Today, Beacon serves Southern Vancouver Island and the outer Gulf Islands — and the Beacon team numbers around 250 staff and 600 volunteers.
