We are deeply saddened to learn the passing of Musqueam Knowledge Holder, Uncle Shane Pointe.

Uncle Shane was a cultural teacher at Kílala Lelum who generously and loving shared teachings including being Nutsamaht (we are one). As a front line worker himself, he believed in the work we did and was the one gifted us the name, "Kílala Lelum", hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ for "Butterfly House". He also supported us with the Naming Ceremony of Doris Fox Lelum and was one of the hearts of the Dream Canoe Family who also named our canoe, "stəqayeʔ" which means Spirit Of The Wolf in hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓.

We are forever grateful for his guidance at Kílala Lelum and share our deepest condolences to his family and the communities that he has touched with his kindness and love.

We're excited to share what we have planned for Cultural Wellness at Kílala Lelum this month.

Today is the last day of the year.

When you give to Kílala Lelum, you’re helping ensure our programs, rooted in culture & kinship, can continue to thrive.

Together, we can keep culture & community at the heart of health care.

Healing happens when people feel seen, respected, and rooted in culture.

At Kílala Lelum, we walk alongside our relatives, providing culturally grounded health care, harm reduction, and social support.

However, even as health and social challenges continue to grow, our core funding hasn’t increased since we first opened our doors. Cultural wellness, women and gender-diverse programming, food security, chronic pain supports, and safe spaces need your help.

With only three days left before the year comes to an end, will you stand with us to transform health care in the DTES?

Every gift makes a difference.
